Venetian Louis XVI Chest of Drawers in Walnut, 18th Century
Elegant Venetian Louis XVI chest of drawers crafted in walnut, dating to the 18th century. With its soft bow-front profile and balanced proportions, the piece captures the refined neoclassical sensibility that defined Venetian craftsmanship of the late 1700s. Three long drawers are framed with delicate string inlays and fitted with simple round brass pulls, combining understated ornamentation with functional design. The walnut surface has aged beautifully, developing a warm, honeyed patina that enhances the natural grain. Subtle tapering at the legs and the restrained curvature of the façade reflect the influence of French neoclassicism, interpreted through an Italian lens of grace and lightness. Timeless in form and scale, this chest offers both utility and elegance — equally suited for use in a bedroom, entryway, or refined living space. A distinguished example of 18th-century Venetian cabinetmaking.
