About the Item
This exquisite Gustavian style chest of drawers, dating to around 1840, exemplifies the refined elegance and balanced proportions of Swedish neoclassical design. Painted in a soft light sand hue with a beautifully aged finish, it features three spacious drawers, offering both decorative charm and practical storage. The top drawer is adorned with a delicate hand-painted pattern, adding visual interest and a touch of artistry to the restrained silhouette. Classic Gustavian details, such as straight, tapered legs and simple molding, give the piece a light and timeless appearance. Original brass pulls and escutcheons add subtle sophistication, while the solid wood back reflects the quality craftsmanship of the period. Ideal as a bedroom dresser, hallway storage, or statement piece in a living room, this chest combines understated Scandinavian grace with functional utility, bringing a sense of historic authenticity and timeless beauty to any interior.
