18th Century French Louis XV Commode Gable Painted Blue

A fine 18th Century French Louis XV Commode with a Painted Finish.
French Louis XV period five drawer commode with blue and grey tones and antique white painted finish. This beautiful commode is a wonderful scale and has a great patina. It features a serpentine or galbé facade. The commode is in original condition, but has been recently refinished and includes bronze hardware. A fine Regence style piece.

This fabulous commode is a decorator’s dream. Look at its Classic lines that hail from the South of France, where painted furniture has been in Vogue since the 18th century, when this incredible piece was made. Without the fuss and formality of Paris made furniture, commodes like this were made for the dining room originally, but today are more often used in bedrooms. Being such a visually stunning piece, it might be more likely used as show-piece in the living areas of a stylish contemporary or classic home. Equally at ease in a very modern glass and steel abode as it would be displayed on a stone floor, more akin to its Provincial origins.

There are five drawers with shaped raised panels having intervening rails, bronze handles, and bronze keyhole plates.
All drawers open easily. We recommend lining the drawers for a more stylish and practical addition. The sides have raised panels conforming to the facade.

Measures: 53″ Wide x 26 1/2″ Deep x 37 1/2″ High

This 18th Century Louis XV Style Commode with a Galbé Facade will enhance any setting.
