18th-century Veneto Chest Of Drawers With Inlays

This impressive walnut chest of drawers, likely dating back to the 18th-19th century, embodies the solidity and elegance typical of antique Venetian furniture. Its sturdy structure and generous dimensions (width 142 cm, depth 68 cm, height 99 cm) make it a statement piece.   The chest features three large front drawers, each adorned with intricately designed metal handles that add a refined touch. Beneath the upper cornice, discreetly hidden within the frame, is a smaller drawer known as the "coin drawer"—a functional and interesting detail commonly found in antique furniture, used for storing small valuables or money.   The walnut wood showcases a warm, natural patina, with grain patterns that highlight the age and quality of the material. The design is simple yet elegant, with well-defined moldings and a slightly raised base on small feet, giving the piece a solid yet graceful appearance.   The sides of the chest are enhanced by a carved frame that outlines a decorative panel, further emphasizing the masterful craftsmanship. This chest of drawers is not just a functional piece of furniture but also a valuable historical and artistic object that adds elegance and character to any space.   Dimensions: Width 142 cm, Depth 68 cm, Height 99 cm.
