This Venetian bombé chest features raised, hand-carved chinoiserie scenes across the drawers, sides, and top — pagodas, boats, swans, figures, and flowering branches softly etched into a warm butter-yellow painted finish. The body shows a beautiful serpentine front and elegant cabriole legs, giving it that classic Italian silhouette with a whimsical Eastern-inspired motif.

A rare artisan piece made entirely of wood (including the carvings), crafted in the traditional style of Venetian and Tuscan workshops. The attached maker’s label attests to the handmade process and traditional painting methods. Two deep drawers offer storage, making it as functional as it is enchanting.

Perfect for an entryway, bedroom, guest room, or boutique interior where personality and craftsmanship matter.
