French Finery

We're Bond & Bowery, a website with the most diverse selection of antiques, design, and fine art in cyberspace. We highlight quality pieces without the clutter of competing ads and excessive editorial content. B & B understands the importance of a valuable acquisition and its contribution to home decoration.

Your B & B Host: I'm George Evans, and I've spent the last 20 years importing and exporting antiques and fine design pieces from Europe. I'm a New York City dealer and I have two showrooms in Lambertville, New Jersey.

This week we're bringing you a French Louis XV Commode by Maitre Nicolas-Jean Marchand, an amazingly decorative piece reputed to be the handiwork of a skilled French craftsman and part of the Chateau de Lauroy family estate. This beautiful commode is offered by Cosulich Interiors & Antiques in New York City.

Add this dramatic 1725-1730 piece to any bedroom to give it flair and polish, as master designer Bunny Williams did with a lovely commode in this particularly regal room.

We think this French Louis XV Commode would look great in your home, too. For a more in-depth discussion about Fine French Furniture, see my By George! interview with Design2Share. And visit Bond & Bowery for the item detail page on this work of art.
