Pair of neoclassical Lombardi chests of drawers, dating back to the last quarter of the 18th century, characterized by a refined design and elegant craftsmanship. Each chest of drawers is supported by four grooved truncated pyramidal feet. The front has three drawers, the first of which is narrower and the other two designed without a visible chain, thus allowing continuity of the inlay. The walnut and walnut root veneer is enriched with olive wood borders and maple and amaranth threads, creating a highly effective play of colors and contrasts. The entire surface is finely inlaid: the band under the top of the first drawer is decorated with an ebony fret adorned with alternating flowers and lilies. The sides and the reserve floors have leaf rosettes; Opposing foliage spirals are repeated on the top and on the front of the two main drawers, in the center of which the inlay of a figure of a man of letters stands out. The interiors of the drawers are made of fir. There are some restorations: one of the backrests has been replaced and some locks have been renewed.
