19th Century Swedish Chest of Drawers

Offered by: Jacqueline Adams Antiques

Description
A classic 19th-century Swedish Gustavian-style chest of drawers, exuding understated elegance and timeless craftsmanship. This three-drawer chest is painted in a soft, muted white with a lightly distressed finish, giving it a warm patina and highlighting its antique character.

The top edge features a carved Greek key motif, a hallmark of Gustavian design, adding a sophisticated decorative element. Each drawer is fitted with original brass ring pulls and escutcheons, enhancing its refined aesthetic. The fluted detailing on the corners and the gently tapered, carved legs with block feet further showcase the Gustavian style’s characteristic balance of form and function.

Constructed from solid pine wood, this chest is both durable and lightweight, making it versatile for various uses. Perfect for a bedroom, hallway, or living room, this piece combines practicality with classic Swedish charm, blending seamlessly into both traditional and contemporary interiors.
