A charming French chest of drawers dating from the 1920s, beautifully executed in an elegant neoclassical style. The piece features a serpentine front with graceful cabriole-inspired legs and a richly hand-painted decorative finish in soft olive-green tones, with delicate floral motifs, scrolling gilt ornament, and romantic pastoral scenes on the drawer fronts and sides. For ease of everyday use, the pull handles have been added more recently. The marble has undergone repairs over the years, which form part of the piece’s history and are consistent with age and long-term use.
