Theodore Alexander "Wine Region" Inlaid Chest of Drawers, 21st Century

Maximalist Mecca Furniture Trunks and Chests

Item Details

This Continental style chest of drawers is a distinctive example of late 20th-century decorative cabinetry, featuring a bold vertical striped marquetry design in alternating wood veneers. The commode is organized into five drawers, with three primary drawers prominently featuring brass nameplates engraved with the French wine regions of ‘BORDEAUX’, ‘CHAMPAGNE’, and ‘BOURGOGNE’. Each drawer is accented with hand-cast brass drop-ring hardware that complements the Neoclassical silhouette. The top surface displays a dark-stained border framing an inset figured veneer panel, while the entire unit rests on a robust plinth base with bracket feet. This piece combines functional storage with a whimsical, high-design aesthetic suitable for a library, dining room, or wine cellar environment.
