Crafted at the turn of the 20th century, this Antique Eastlake Victorian Walnut Commode features a rich array of period details that capture the essence of late Victorian design. Its bold geometric panels and characteristic incised carving across the top drawer are hallmarks of the Eastlake movement, which favored a more architectural and restrained aesthetic compared to its ornate predecessors. The warm walnut tones contrast beautifully with the cooler gray tones of the original marble top, complete with an integrated backsplash and shaped sides—ideal for both visual appeal and practical use in a period bathroom or entryway.
Below the shallow upper drawer, two paneled cabinet doors open to reveal a spacious interior, offering useful storage. The piece retains its original brass and ebony drop pulls, which add a lovely touch of elegance and patina, and it sits on casters for ease of movement—typical of the period. The distinctive half-moon carved motif centered above the cabinet doors adds subtle decorative interest, tying together form and function.
In nice antique condition with age-appropriate wear. The marble is intact with one small repair at the top edge of the backsplash (pictured), and shows gentle surface wear consistent with over a century of use. The walnut case is sturdy and attractive with a deep finish and good color, showing minor scuffs and signs of use that enhance its character. A beautiful and useful example of Eastlake design ready for a new home. 39h x 31w x 15d counter height 30.5
