Miniature French Restauration Period Walnut Commode or Chest, Meuble de Maitrise
About
This miniature chest from the early 19th century is a "meuble de maitrise" or masterwork created by a cabinetmaker's apprentice to prove mastery of his craft at the end of his apprenticeship. A rare find from the French Restauration period, this tabletop chest is constructed of solid walnut. It features three drawers of dovetail construction, each fitted with two knob drawer pulls. A handsome addition to a bedroom or dressing room, its drawers could accommodate jewelry, watches, or cuff links, circa 1820.
