Continental Venetian Painted Commode 19th Century

H=30 1/4, W=43 3/8, D=19 7/8

An Antique Continental Venetian Painted 2- Drawer, 2 Door Commode  (Chest of Drawers)–Good Antique Condition – chipping to paint, minor chips to wood as would be expected for its age. – Early 1800’s

This painted antique Venetian 2-drawer, 2 door commode has painted floral bouquets surrounded by c and s-scroll leaf  borders. The overall color is the much sought after muted yellow ochre with pale and medium blues, greens, and roses. There are 2 central drawers and 2 doors, one on either side of the drawers. The legs are stylized cabriolet legs and cloven feet.

These pieces are difficult to find as the people tend to keep their smaller pieces of furniture, i.e., chests of drawers, end tables, night tables, etc. rather than sell them.  Commodes or chests of drawers  are always much in demand.
