A striking 19th century Swedish serpentine commode of grand proportions, beautifully painted in soft cream with subtle tones of coffee and beige.
The elegant serpentine front incorporates four generously proportioned drawers, each retaining its original functioning lock and key and fitted with decorative iron pull handles. The shaped lower section and slender moulded legs give the piece an elegant profile that balances its impressive scale.
The softly aged painted finish and restrained Scandinavian palette give this commode a wonderfully decorative quality without being overly ornate. Offering exceptional storage, it would make a handsome statement piece in a bedroom, hallway or sitting room.
The commode separates into two sections, making it considerably easier to move and position within the home.

Authenticity
Every antique piece at Tallulah Fox has lived a unique life before finding its way to us. Gentle wear, historic repairs, natural patina and the character that comes with age are not imperfections but part of each piece's story, making every item entirely individual. We believe these signs of age are what give antique furniture its warmth, authenticity and enduring appeal.
Why We Love This Piece
We love the unusually grand proportions of this Swedish commode. The serpentine shape and elegant legs keep it beautifully balanced, while the soft cream, coffee and beige palette gives it a wonderfully understated Scandinavian character. And with four substantial drawers, it offers an exceptional amount of practical storage.
