2000s Maitland Smith Attributed Louis XV Style Distressed Decorated Commode

A beautifully decorated commode, this piece stands out with its ornate metallic-painted gesso appliqués, adding a touch of elegance and uniqueness. The distressed paint finish enhances its vintage charm, giving it a timeworn character that feels both authentic and stylish. While there are minor chips in a few areas, they blend seamlessly with the overall aesthetic. The interior drawers are thoughtfully lined with felt for a touch of softness and refinement.Though the original maker’s mark is no longer present—likely removed or lost over time during previous ownership—the design, materials, and construction quality are all strongly indicative of Maitland-Smith’s work during this era.
