About the Item

A stunning pair of English George III chinoiserie lacquered commodes, dating to the late 18th or early 19th century. Showcasing an exquisite blend of European craftsmanship and Asian-inspired design, each commode features a bowfront silhouette, elegantly raised on cabriole legs with pad feet. The golden lacquered surface is adorned with richly detailed chinoiserie motifs, depicting idyllic landscapes with pagodas, scholars, and lush gardens, framed by delicate floral and foliate embellishments. The commodes open via a pair of central doors, revealing beautifully aged red-painted interiors fitted with shelving—ideal for discreet storage while maintaining their refined aesthetic. The original lacquered finish has developed a soft craquelure patina, enhancing their timeless appeal. A testament to England’s fascination with the Far East, these commodes reflect the height of George III-era chinoiserie, a style that flourished among elite European homes in the late 18th century. Whether placed in a living room, entryway, or bedroom, this elegant pair offers a perfect balance of functionality and artistic refinement. A rare and sophisticated addition to any curated collection.
