About the Item

This superb paint-decorated French style dresser, attributed to the esteemed maker Karges, is a refined example of craftsmanship and timeless elegance. The dresser features a faux-painted marble top, blending visual sophistication with practical durability. The case is beautifully finished in soft pastel tones, with delicate blue and cream paintwork accented by hand-applied gilt trim. Each drawer is adorned with ornate gilt bronze pulls and escutcheons, adding a touch of luxury and highlighting the dresser’s French provincial influence. The serpentine front and scalloped apron further enhance its graceful silhouette, making this piece as decorative as it is functional. With ample drawer storage, this dresser is as practical as it is stylish. In antique interiors, it pairs perfectly with French and continental furnishings, offering authenticity and charm. In Hollywood Regency décor, its pastel tones, gilt accents, and painted marble top contribute glamour and refinement. Even within mid-century modern settings, it serves as a bold contrast piece, blending clean lines with a touch of romantic European artistry. Whether used in a bedroom, dining room, or entryway, this paint-decorated Karges-attributed dresser is a statement of fine taste, versatility, and enduring beauty. Measures 62.75 wide x 35.5 tall x 25.5 deep. Dates to teh 1960s era.
