Requiring the talents of four master artisans, 19th Century French Marquetry Marble Top Bombe Commodes such as this example needed a talented menuisier to create the complex natrualistic, curved form of the case, followed by the ebeniste who applied marquetry in a purely artistic form, next followed by the metalsmith who applied bronze mounts custom-made for this particular piece, and lastly the stonemason who contoured and beveled a solid slab of marble for the perfect crown to the collaborative achievement!
