The fashion for integrating Asian lacquer panels (decorated with a resin varnish made from the sap of a tree) into European furniture was at its height in the mid-18th century when this commode (chest of drawers) was made. Lacquer from Japan. Or China was very costly. And the application of flat panels of lacquer on this type of swollen-fronted (or bombé) commode required a very high degree of skill. Bernard Vanrisamburg was one of the "most eminent Paris craftsmen working in this style." The commode is likely——to have been displayed in a grand reception room (or salon)/a bedroom.
