Blue Painted Large Rococo Oak Chest of Four Drawers, Sweden circa 1750-1800

About the Item

This large antique rococo oak chest of four drawers features a serpentine front, brass hardware pulls and rests on cabriolet feet. It has been given an exceptional new professional blue layered painted finish with mottled elements of teal, steel blue, gray, white, and black undertones. It has been lightly distressed to fit the age and grace of the dresser. The top has a contrasting antique white painted finish. Please enlarge the close up photos of the layered colors of paint to best understand the color/finish to both body and top. Two large brass pulls are on each drawer. A key is included for aesthetics but pulls are used to open each drawer. The four drawers do show typical age-related separation of planks on each bottom. The top drawer has been reinforced with a new piece of wood across the bottom (which was in place when we purchased this in Europe). This large pine chest has been restored, case is sturdy and drawers function. All cracks (including top), dings, aged separation (along drawer bottoms), old repairs in the back are reflective of age and do not detract from the beauty nor function of this handsome chest of drawers. Please refer to professional photos for clear understanding of color, condition, and details; photo lighting, individual monitor display and home lighting all impact how item is viewed. Photos are part of item description, please ask questions or request additional photos of specific areas if needed.

Painted Oak Chest of Four Drawers
Located in Baltimore, MD
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...
