About the Item

Step into the elegance of the 18th century with this extraordinary Italian hand-painted bombe commode, a stunning example of craftsmanship and artistry from the third quarter of the 1700s. Combining graceful design with exquisite polychrome-painted details, this piece is a true testament to the refined taste and expert skill of Italian furniture makers of the period. The commode’s serpentine form and bombe silhouette are hallmarks of Italian furniture design during the late Baroque and early Rococo periods. Its flowing, curvaceous lines convey a sense of movement and sophistication, elevating it to a sculptural work of art. Every surface of this commode is a canvas for masterful hand-painted decoration. The front features two generously proportioned drawers adorned with an intricate still-life scene of flowers and foliage, rendered in vibrant colors that evoke the beauty of nature.The serpentine sides continue this theme with delicate floral sprays, harmonizing with the central motif and adding depth and character to the piece. The drawers are fitted with elegant brass pull handles, which appear to be original to the piece, though their precise provenance is uncertain. These gleaming accents enhance the commode’s luxurious aesthetic while providing practical functionality. Centuries of history have imparted a rich patina to this piece, lending it an authentic charm. Areas of inpainting, minor nicks, age splits, and signs of wear all serve as reminders of its storied past. Evidence of old worming adds to its antique character without compromising its sturdy construction. This commode transcends trends, making it an ideal addition to a variety of interior styles. Whether placed in a grand entryway, sophisticated living room, or refined bedroom, its timeless beauty will enhance any setting. Despite its age and wear, the commode remains sturdy and functional, embodying the perfect marriage of practicality and artistry. Height: Approximately 36 ½ inches. Length: Approximately 55 inches. Depth: Approximately 27 inches at the widest point. The bombe commode’s elegant curves and intricate details make it a standout feature in any room, drawing the eye and sparking conversation.
