About the Item

A mid-18th century Venetian commode, finely painted and parcel-gilt, retaining its original three-drawer configuration. The softly shaped bombe façade is decorated with elegant Rococo scrollwork and foliate motifs, executed in gilt against a muted painted ground and framed by delicately articulated borders. Raised on slender cabriole legs with a shaped apron, the commode exemplifies the lightness and decorative refinement characteristic of Venetian Rococo furniture, where painted and gilded surfaces were favoured over heavy carving. The surface retains a rich, time-softened patina with areas of wear consistent with age, enhancing its authenticity and decorative presence. A refined and atmospheric example of mid-18th century Venetian Rococo craftsmanship. Venetian furniture of this period favoured painted and gilt surfaces over heavy carving, resulting in lighter, more decorative forms than their French contemporaries.
