This stunning pair of Italian commodes has a remarkable original green painted finish highlighted in gold and burnished red bringing out the carved details.To find one bombay chest of this size is a challenge, at 50" wide to find a pair is exceptionally rare. Beautiful green color was scraped by hand by a conservator down to the first original layer of paint. Exaggerated curves of the belly and legs add to the strong visual appeal. The brass pulls on the 3 drawers compliment the carving and cabriolet legs of these remarkable chest of drawers. All nicks, scratches, signs of wear are commensurate with age including minor cracks/separation of drawer bottoms (which are still lined with fleur de lis paper) and do not detract from the beauty nor function of these exceptional bombay chests. Please enlarge the professional photos to examine the details and exceptional finish close up of this remarkable pair of bombay commodes; also to clearly understand finish, details, condition, etc.
