    "The term originates in the vocabulary of French furniture from about 1700. At that time, a commode meant a cabinet or chest of drawers"

    Coviello Antiques in Essex, MA. is the place that best fits description of shop - antique furniture packed in one location (one has to be thin and agile to navigate). Paul Martin Antiques in Haverill MA. also near by will set a record for antique furniture - a 4 story warehouse of only antique furniture - there must be 1000 pieces. This is a great area for furniture being heavily populated since the early 18th century.
    PS; Nice find . .
