About the Item

A Swedish Rococo period three-drawer commode from circa 1770 with light gray cream painted finish, carved skirt and serpentine front. This Swedish Rococo period three-drawer commode, dating back to circa 1770, is a magnificent example of the opulent and curvaceous designs characteristic of the Rococo style.
