Rosewood Dutch Bombe Chest of Drawers

18th century
Description

Superb Dutch Bombe Commode/ Chest of Drawers in wonderful original condition. This is an outstanding example of 18th century craftmanship and as most are made from mahogany or walnut so this rosewood one is a rare find. The oversailing top is covered in stunning rosewood veneers and has a beautiful scalloped and moulded edge. This wonderful set has 4 graduating shaped drawers carved decoration to the curved sides and apron. All the drawers run smoothly, have dovetail joints construction and retain original brass handles and back plates apart from the bottom right which seems to be replaced at one time but very close match still having its original back plate. Like all antique furniture there are some imperfections but these only add to the charm and character of this solid chest of drawers. This is a striking example of period furniture with incredible graining and amazing patina offering not only storage space but history to any home.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

A Dutch bombe chest of drawers is a traditional 18th-century cabinetry piece characterised by its outward-swelling, convex profile, often featuring intricate carving and cast brass mounts.

These chests are predominantly constructed from dense hardwoods such as rosewood, mahogany, or walnut, incorporating hand-cut dovetail joints, oak secondary timbers, and chased brass drawer pulls.

Authentic period pieces exhibit hand-carved construction marks, age-appropriate wear to drawer runners, natural oxidisation on brass hardware, and timber shrinkage consistent with age.

A bombe chest serves as an anchor piece when positioned against a neutral wall, balanced with modern artwork or minimal lighting fixtures to contrast its ornate profile.

Position the piece away from direct sunlight and heat sources to prevent timber cracking, and apply a thin layer of natural beeswax polish annually to maintain the finish.
