Welcome to an overview of 18th century French commodes, commode tables, or chests of drawers. This video features three quintessential commodes in chronological order which demonstrate the core evolution of French furniture style across the 18th century. This overview discusses what a “commode” is in the realm of historic period furniture (fine antiques, if you will), and it explores these three fine pieces with the intention of helping you become a better collector while preserving a digital trace of them online.
