A three-drawer cabinet dating back to the late 18th century and attributable to Genoese cabinetmaking.
Fine Details and Materials
Ligneous Essences: The structure is entirely veneered using noble woods: the deep, veined Rosewood for the main fields, expertly combined to create a lively herringbone design and chromatic contrasts typical of Genoese furniture of the time. Bois de Rose (lighter, pinkish rosewood) was used for fine edging and reserves.
Style and Design: The line is sober and elegant, typically neoclassical, with a compact body lightened by tapered, tapered legs.
Inlays and Veneering: The surface of the drawers and top is framed by rectangular reserves with inlaid edges, which highlight the beautiful and complex grain of the rosewood. The ability to juxtapose the vein and counter-vein of the fiber creates a dynamic play of converging light and color.
Finishes: The three drawers are equipped with brass knobs with a classic design. The sides of the piece of furniture take up the same elegant frame as the facade.
Condition: The furniture is in good original period condition, with a splendid patina that attests to its age and history with shellac polishing.
