Acacia chest of drawers, Louis XV period – 2nd part of the 18th century

Elegant and robust, this solid acacia chest of drawers embodies the refinement of the Louis XV period in the second half of the 18th century. Originating from the Vannes region, it subtly evokes the curved lines of crossbow chests of drawers, while asserting its maritime character through the solidity of its wood and the richness of its ornaments. It opens with three large identical drawers, each adorned with finely crafted bronze handles and inlets. The uprights are highlighted by a molding with a recess, while the crosspieces, also molded, add to the harmony of the whole. The piece of furniture rests on front legs called "snails", typical of the Louis XV aesthetic, which give it a look that is both graceful and assertive. This chest of drawers is a reflection of Breton craftsmanship and 18th-century French elegance. A true work of cabinetmaking. ******** Period: 2nd Part of the 18th century Perfect condition.
