Estate sale in New Albany, Ohio
Dear Victoria,
Greetings and thank you for calling upon the services of Mearto to evaluate your Louis XIV style lingerie chest with wood veneer and bronze mounts and handles. This piece was made in the 20th century in the French style and because of its compact size is a popular piece of furniture as it can fit into a five bedroom home as well as a fashionable tiny home.
The veneer panels on the side and the drawers look to be of figured birds-eye maple and the body is a walnut veneer. At auction these always find a buyer in the range of $225USD to $300USD (this is a great comparative example to yours: https://www.liveauctioneers.com/item/7554498_24-lingerie-chest).
If you have any follow-up questions, please let me know and thank you for submitting to Mearto.
Kindest Regards,
Erin-Marie
