Why You’ll Love It
This is a beautifully detailed French Provincial commode. It was originally crafted by Hansson and later enhanced with a hand-painted distressed ivory finish. It has delicate carved scrollwork, a serpentine top, shapely cabriole legs, and scrolling apron. A wonderful piece for French Provincial, Rococo, Louis XV, and shabby-chic interiors. The pair of front cabinet doors open to useful interior storage space, but the drawer is decorative and does not open. It would make a fabulous sideboard, bedroom commode, entry cabinet, or salon accent.
Perfect for a French bedroom, dining room, salon, entry hall, château interior, cottage retreat, or romantic vintage-inspired vignette.

A Note About Value
Every miniature we offer has been carefully evaluated for its craftsmanship, rarity, condition, provenance, and collectibility. Many of the artisan pieces we sell are one-of-a-kind works that may never appear on the market again. While original retail prices provide an interesting historical reference, they rarely reflect decades of appreciation, the artist's legacy, or the scarcity of surviving examples.
Our pricing reflects the miniature's place within today's collector market and the years we've spent studying the artists, histories, and values that make these tiny works of art so special.
A Commitment to Research
Every miniature has a story, and uncovering it is one of our greatest passions. We carefully research each piece, but unsigned or illegible works can remain mysteries. If you can identify an artist or provide additional information, we'd be delighted to hear from you and will gladly update the listing to preserve their legacy.
