Antique pine wood commode – Central Europe, around 1880

Antique pine wood commode from Central Europe. It comes from rural domestic furniture of the 19th century, when hand-painted faux wood finishes imitated noble woods on modest bedroom pieces. Commodes of this type furnished rural bedrooms, combining three large storage drawers with small consoles carved with leaf motifs at the upper corners. The body, with three drawers, features consoles carved with floral patterns under the cornice and rests on turned ball feet. The decorative finish in hand-painted faux wood in a honey tone covers the entire surface, with white ceramic handles and their original metal entries.
