With its superb contre-partie inlays and elegant shaped form, this commode relates to the oeuvre of Nicolas Sageot (1666-1731) but is more likely to be the work of the ébéniste Aubertin Gaudron (active circa 1670-1700). A similar commode, with Galerie Achkar-Charrière in 1990, is stamped AG for Aubertin Gaudron, and has a top of the same design with a rabbit hunt scene. Another marquetry top of this design features on a 19th Century desk reusing a late 17th century top, probably from a commode by Gaudron, now in the Wallace Collection (F60).
