1860 Commode Copper Nuit Storage Furniture

EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite commode and table de nuit, or night table, showcase the timeless elegance of the Louis XVI style. Dating back to circa 1860, these pieces are crafted from black wood and adorned with intricate copper accents. The commode, a versatile furniture piece, offers ample storage space with its multiple drawers, while the table de nuit, designed for use beside a bed, features a smooth surface perfect for placing a lamp or other small items. The Louis XVI style, named after King Louis XVI of France, emerged during the late 18th century and is characterized by its grandeur and opulence. The use of rich woods, such as mahogany and walnut, and luxurious materials like velvet and silk, were common in this period. The addition of copper accents, as seen in this commode and table de nuit, was also popular, as copper was believed to have health benefits and was thought to ward off evil spirits. This commode and table de nuit are not only beautiful pieces of furniture, but they also hold historical significance. The intricate details and craftsmanship reflect the high level of skill and artistry during the 19th century. These pieces would have been owned by the wealthy elite, and their possession signified wealth, status, and refinement. The black wood and copper finish of this commode and table de nuit add an air of sophistication and mystery, making them a desirable addition to any home. Their timeless design and rich history make them a true treasure for any collector or enthusiast of antique furniture.
