House Note · About this piece

In 1756 the French porcelain works moved to Sèvres, just outside Paris, and with Madame de Pompadour among its champions, its porcelain became part of how the court dined and furnished its rooms. This dresser is made for the first quiet minutes of the morning, when the day's clothes are chosen and a ring or a watch is picked up from the porcelain top. That inset is smooth and cool under perfume bottles and a jewelry dish, and three deep drawers below take the folded things.

The porcelain is set into the top with softly rounded corners, and the drawer fronts are trimmed with bamboo detailing and finished with round pulls that are easy to grasp. At more than four and a half feet wide it gives a generous surface to dress from, and it arrives fully assembled.

Give it the wall opposite the bed with a tall mirror over it and a lamp at one end, or put it to work in a dining room, napkins and tablecloths in the drawers and a pair of candlesticks on the porcelain. This listing is for one dresser.
