Swedish Gustavian-Style Painted Chest of Drawers in Sienna and Antique White, Ci
-
Description
A Swedish Gustavian-style chest of drawers crafted circa 1890–1900, distinguished by its warm sienna tone and hand-painted marbleized top. The subtle imitation of marble adds depth and sophistication to the surface, while the decorative “teeth” frieze beneath the top reflects the neoclassical influence that defines Gustavian design. Each of the three drawers is framed with molded borders, creating a balanced rhythm across the façade. Brass ring pulls and working locks, with one key included, lend a touch of understated ornamentation. On both sides, vertical fluted panels emphasize symmetry and refinement, and the tapered legs give the piece its signature lightness. Made of pine wood, this chest embodies the timeless charm of Swedish craftsmanship — elegant, functional, and serene. The combination of sienna and antique white tones makes it a versatile accent for both classic 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! -
