19th Century Swedish Gustavian Style Chest of Drawers Circa 1870
About the Item
This elegant 19th-century Swedish chest of drawers, crafted circa 1870, is a fine example of the Gustavian style, an aesthetic born from neoclassical influences and adapted with Scandinavian restraint. The chest features three full-length drawers, each adorned with finely carved, radiating linear motifs arranged in stylized diamond patterns. These subtle yet sophisticated details reflect the Gustavian ethos of quiet refinement and balanced symmetry. The original hardware, including circular escutcheons and classic brass pulls, complements the soft gray painted finish, which has developed a beautiful patina over time.
The marbleized painted top adds a layer of visual richness, offering the appearance of stone with the warmth and practicality of wood. Dentil molding runs along the top edge, while the tapered legs contribute to the chest’s graceful proportions. This piece is as functional as it is beautiful, offering generous storage while enhancing any space with its light, airy palette and timeless silhouette.
