Pair of Swedish Black-Painted Commodes with Brass Hardware, 20th Century
-
Description
A striking pair of Swedish black-painted commodes, embodying the timeless elegance of Scandinavian design. Each features three drawers with brass ring pulls and escutcheons that stand out beautifully against the deep black finish, adding a subtle note of refinement. The drawers are framed with delicate molding, while tapered legs and clean, balanced proportions lend the pair an air of understated sophistication. Their form recalls the late Gustavian tradition — simple, symmetrical, and unpretentious — reinterpreted through a darker, more contemporary palette. The worn patina of the painted surface enhances their character, revealing gentle traces of age and craftsmanship. Ideal as bedroom chests, statement pieces in a hallway, or sideboards in a refined interior, these commodes bring a bold yet timeless presence to any setting.
This is an antique and having been around for a long time, it will show signs of wear. Antique pieces have very much sought-after character and associated flaws. Please review photos for condition & contact us with questions! -
