1900s French Louis XVI Mahogany & Marble Commode

A refined early 20th-century French Louis XVI Revival commode, crafted from rich mahogany and finished with elegant fruitwood marquetry, gilded bronze decorations and its original Italian black marble top.

Dating to the 1900s, this substantial French storage cabinet combines classical Louis XVI proportions with high-quality materials and practical interior storage. The warm mahogany, dark marble and gilt bronze mounts create a sophisticated contrast that gives the piece a strong yet elegant presence.

Mahogany & Fruitwood Marquetry

The commode is constructed from beautifully figured mahogany, displaying a warm antique patina developed naturally over more than a century.

Decorative fruitwood marquetry inlay adds subtle contrast throughout the cabinet, emphasizing the refined neoclassical character of the design.

The front and sides are further enriched with gilded bronze mounts, including classical rosettes, garland motifs and ornamental borders inspired by the Louis XVI period.

Original Italian Black Marble Top

The commode retains its original Italian black marble top, featuring attractive natural veining and a polished surface.

The deep black marble provides a striking contrast against the warm mahogany and gold-toned bronze details while also creating a durable surface for displaying sculptures, lamps, porcelain, flowers or other decorative objects.

Practical Interior Storage

Two front doors open to reveal a spacious interior fitted with the original wooden shelf.

The generous storage space makes the commode suitable for linens, tableware, books, personal belongings or decorative accessories, allowing it to function beautifully in a living room, bedroom, dining room, hallway or entrance hall.

The original key is no longer present; however, the doors open and close properly without it.
