Large Blue Painted Oak Chest of Four Drawers, Sweden circa 1820-40

About the Item

Large antique oak chest of four drawers with handsome brass hardware pulls all resting on cabriolet feet. It has been given an exceptional new professional pale blue/seafoam layered painted finish and has been lightly distressed, bringing out the natural oak below, fitting the age and grace of the dresser. This large chest has been restored, case is sturdy and drawers function. All cracks, dings, aged separation (in particular the bottom of each drawer) are reflective of age and do not detract from the beauty of this large chest of drawers. Old repairs seen, some pine wood used.

    Large chest of three drawers with carved panels from France, circa 1820-1840. The newer, professionally applied soft gray painted finish (with blue and white undertones) adds a touch of life and interest to this heavy oak chest. The carved panel drawers, fluted tapered feet and fluted side accents are gently distressed adding to the vintage feel of the dresser. Expected age-related separation of wood is visible in the drawers and back, but does not impact the strength nor functionality of the dresser. The three long drawers all function and each have 2 brass pulls for ease of use. This lovely large French chest of drawers...

    What an extraordinary chest of drawers! The top is plain with a bullnose edge and the sides are nicely paneled. The front corners of the case are boldly reeded and toward the top a sprig of lily of the valley is delicately carved inside the reed. Above this is a massive scrolled acanthus leaf corbel, appearing to support the top. The drawers are more or less equal in depth with faux panels created by an applied mitered molding with a bead running round the inside. The knobs are rare; hardly ever seen They are the classic shape of the ceramic knobs found on much Central European vernacular furniture, except these are carved in wood. The gourd-like feet have similar contours. The oak was finished in dark tones and then was painted over in buttermilk. At some time it was painted white and has worn or been rubbed through to the earlier layers. The result is a delightful piece that need not be confined to the bedroom, but rather can be enjoyed wherever some whimsical storage...
