About the Item

The Louise Demi Semainier is designed by Paul Mathieu for Stephanie Odegard Collection. In Smooth Antiqued White Bronze, the piece has three drawers on a serpentine front, four cabriole legs, and a carved floral surface that covers the front, sides, and top. The Smooth Antiqued White Bronze cladding follows the relief of the carving, the metal pressed into the floral forms so the pattern reads through the surface. At 24 by 16 by 30 inches, it works as a chest of drawers, a dresser, a bedside cabinet, or a freestanding accent piece. The wood is carved before the metalwork begins. Smooth Antiqued White Bronze metal sheets are pattern-cut and hand-fitted over each carved surface, working the metal into the relief to preserve the floral pattern beneath. The three drawers run on smooth fitted runners; their curved pulls are formed from the Smooth Antiqued White Bronze cladding. Flush-set nails secure the metal at each seam line. Measures 24 by 16 by 30 inches. Three drawers with curved metal pulls. Available in all twelve standard finishes across fine hammered and smooth surfaces. Custom sizing available. Made entirely to order. Designed by Paul Mathieu for Stephanie Odegard Collection. The Louise Demi Semainier takes its name from the French semainier tradition, its form from the Louis XV period, and its carved surface from the decorative craft tradition of Rajasthan's artisan workshops. All three are present in the same object. Produced in Udaipur. Made to order, each piece may show slight variations that are a natural result of handmade metal-clad production. The Smooth Antiqued White Bronze surface will gradually mellow in tone over time, which is part of the material's natural character. The images shown in this listing may be photographed in different lighting conditions or may include 3D illustrations created to represent the available finishes. We warmly encourage customers to request an individual sample or a complete sample set of all twelve finishes to experience the surface, tone, and character firsthand. Please note that moisture in the air, seasonal climate shifts, and the natural movement of wood over time may cause the metal surface to develop slight wrinkles or occasional bubbling. We use well-seasoned reclaimed teak and high-quality marine-grade MDF wherever technically possible to minimise these natural effects, but complete stability of metal cannot be guaranteed. All smooth finishes will show subtle tool marks. These are not defects but a natural and unavoidable result of hand-working and hand-polishing metal sheets. Our hammered finishes are recommended where a more textured, forgiving surface is preferred. None of our metal-clad pieces are sealed with a permanent protective coating. This allows the metal to age naturally and beautifully over time. We polish every piece carefully before packing. A clear PU coat can be applied on request. The antiqued white bronze finish will react with natural elements the fastest in the beginning, but it too will stop reacting and settle into a stable state like copper after 6-12 months. Since it is already antiqued and looks intentionally tarnished, this early reaction does not change the overall appearance. In that way, this surface is the most forgiving. The antiqued white bronze finish is done by applying an acidic chemical over the white bronze to recreate a natural patination. Like the aging of silver, copper, or brass, the final result and colour uniformity cannot be guaranteed. The goal of this finish is to achieve rainbow-like tones with dull, shiny, cloudy, and lightly streaked patches to give an illusion of antiquing. As a default practice, we offer a protective wipe-on PU coat only on this finish. If a designer prefers the natural, uncoated aging, we can leave it untreated just like the other finishes. A PU coat helps keep the surface looking the same as when shipped, but it does not create a fully uniform patina; natural variation will always remain part of this finish.
