Pair of Swedish Painted Chests with Fluted Drawers and Brass Hardware
-
Description
A distinctive pair of Swedish chests of drawers, likely crafted in the early 20th century, featuring richly textured façades with horizontal fluting across each drawer front. Painted in a muted charcoal-black tone with a beautifully worn patina, the finish reveals subtle traces of the natural wood beneath, enhancing their antique character. Each chest features three spacious drawers fitted with circular brass escutcheons and ring pulls, offering both functional storage and refined decorative appeal.
The solid pine construction and carefully molded frames reflect the quality and quiet elegance of Scandinavian craftsmanship. Slightly canted corners flow into tapered legs with understated carved details, giving the chests a grounded yet graceful silhouette. These versatile pieces are ideal as nightstands, side cabinets, or paired storage units in living spaces. Their symmetrical form, rhythmic surface pattern, and restrained ornamentation make them a timeless addition to both classical and contemporary interiors.
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! -
