A rare Piedmontese chest of drawers from the Louis Philippe period (first half of the 19th century), featuring a refined walnut and walnut burl veneer, enriched by a precious Carrara marble top.

Its soft, welcoming lines make it a versatile piece, perfect for both classic settings and modern spaces seeking character and authenticity.
A piece that needs no explanation to be admired: the quality of the materials, the finesse of the carvings, and the beauty of the wood grain speak for themselves.
