This small jewel of Piedmontese cabinet-making is the most elegant and refined the Savoy capital has produced.
In fact, it presents all the most typical features of the Turin furniture made in the last decades of the 18th century, in the most perfect Louis XVI style of French taste.
The furniture is absolutely authentic from the right period in all its external and internal parts including the original locks.
It is a high-level chest of drawers entirely inlaid with geometric motifs on its entire surface with a perfect combination of all the precious light and dark wood essences.
We often find it in the most important Savoy residences and in the encyclopedias of antique furniture.
