Truly exceptional antique walnut serpentine commode, showcasing masterful craftsmanship and dramatic materials throughout. This grand-scale piece was crafted in richly figured walnut and walnut burl veneer, with a strongly shaped bombé façade and serpentine outline, accented by original aged brass hardware with exquisite patina.
