Swedish Gustavian Period 1820s Painted Sideboard with Reeded Doors and Diamonds

Description
A Swedish Gustavian period painted wood sideboard from the early 19th century, with reeded doors, diamond motifs and carved ogee bracket feet. Created in Sweden during the first quarter of the 19th century, this Gustavian sideboard features a rectangular top sitting above two large doors carved with reeded patterns and diamond motifs. These doors open to reveal a grey painted interior showcasing inner shelves offering convenient storage solutions. The sideboard is raised on four ogee bracket feet whose sinuous lines complement the piece's linear silhouette beautifully. It is painted in a soft color typical of the Swedish taste for light palettes aiming at brightening the rooms during the dark winters of Scandinavia.
