Hand-painted dresser: the original shabby chic

by Juliana on January 7, 2010

Remember when all your friends went “shabby chic?” This lovely dresser recalls an earlier mania over painted furniture in the 1920s. This piece, most likely from the 1890s, was probably painted back then.

It’s a three-drawer pine dresser with a marble top, painted to match the rest of the dresser. It would be comfortable  – and quite useful – in your traditional or Victorian home.

Approximate dimensions: 45″ wide, 18″ deep, 29″ high. Utterly charming. $595.
