Pair of Gustavian Style Painted Chests of Drawers, Late 19th Century
A pair of Gustavian style chests of drawers in pale cream paint, Swedish, late 19th century. Each chest carries three drawers beneath a dentil-carved frieze, dressed with black turned pulls and shaped escutcheons that stand out handsomely against the light surface, raised on tapered feet. Matched pairs of painted chests are among the most sought-after of Swedish antiques, solving the bedside problem in one stroke while serving equally well flanking a doorway or fireplace. The soft, dry paint has worn gently at the edges in the way collectors of Scandinavian furniture prize. Both chests are sound and their drawers run properly, with wear consistent with age and use.
