Empire Dressers and Chests of Drawers

Antique Empire Dressers to Rule your Decorative Roost

Empire style has infiltrated the world of décor. American Empire, for one, draws its influence from the O.G.: the original Empire decorative style, which was popularized in France under Napoleon's elaborate, gilt-clad rule. Characterized by luxe materials like brass and gilt, and time-honored, European-inspired motifs like Greek-key and column patterns, the American version of this Neoclassical movement includes special hallmarks like scroll pillars, oak veneers and the use of curvilinear forms.

Global Style, Right in Your Home

The style made its way to other areas of the globe, too. Think: Austrian Empire commodes crafted of bronze hardware and lion-form feet, gilt bronze and mahogany antique empire dresser pieces from 1910s Russia, and more. Finding the right empire-style dresser for your home or project, then, should be an experience fit for royalty.
