18th Century English (Swedish Style) Petite 3-Drawer Chest

About the Item

A smaller-sized English painted wood chest of three drawers, from the 18th century. This antique chest from England has been designed in the clean lines and look of the Swedish Gustavian era. It has three drawers, which are minimally adorn with a painted outline about their perimeter, and each fitted with a pair of simple ring pulls. The skirting is linear all around, with a detailed trim carved between the lowest drawer and skirt along the front side. This chest is present upon four flute-carved, square tapering feet (which are likely a later addition). The custom painted finish is warm and earthy; primarily made up of wheat, taupe, and browns. This 18th century Swedish-influenced chest is the perfect piece where a smaller sized case-piece is needed; perhaps as a single nightstand or storage and display within a powder room.
