French Provincial Hand Painted Commode or Chest of Drawers with Floral Design

Offered by: Atlas Showroom

Description
This French Provincial chest of drawers, or commode, is an exquisite representation of 18th-century elegance, imbued with a romantic charm that defines the French country aesthetic. The hand-painted surface showcases a soft, muted palette of cream and pastel tones, enhanced by delicate floral accents, which are meticulously applied to the drawer fronts and framing details. The floral embellishments, featuring roses in subtle pinks and greens, bring a refined, feminine touch to the piece, emphasizing its artisanal quality.

The curvaceous form, with its serpentine front and scalloped apron, sits atop gracefully carved cabriole legs, further enhancing the commode's sense of sophistication. The scrolling details along the drawer fronts, along with the ornate original brass drawer pulls add charm and authenticity to this quality piece of furniture.
Each drawer is designed to provide both aesthetic beauty and practical storage, while the rich patina and slight distressing of the finish lend an air of authenticity and antiquity to the piece. Perfect for a bedroom or living space, this commode brings a sense of timeless elegance and charm, effortlessly combining functionality with the romance of French Provincial craftsmanship.
The chest of drawers is signed inside of the top drawer, a testament for its authenticity and provenance.
