Charming and very decorative with the red paint nicely distressed for a relaxed, lived-in look - or to be retouched for a more formal and elegant appearance (the first of the additional photos shows how the commode would look fully retouched. The retouch can be done by our restorer to the clients wishes and is included). The beautifully painted bouquets of flowers with with an added bird here and there, and the gilt decorated moldings give this commode a unique rich look.
