2 - Mackenzie Childs Painted "Bombay" Wood Chest Late 20th century Artist/Designer/Manufacturer: MacKenzie-Childs Materials: Wood (primarily pine/tulipwood), gesso, polychrome paint, and fabric accents (tassels) Marking(s): Mackenzie Childs plaque near bottom back foot. Turtle feet are stamped on bottom. Cataloguer's Note: This whimsical late 20th-century commode is a definitive example of artisanal statement furniture by the celebrated American design studio MacKenzie-Childs. Features two ceramic turtle feet. Crafted with a distinctively swollen, undulating serpentine silhouette characteristic of traditional European Baroque and Rococo bombe commodes, the chest functions as a canvas for the brand's iconic post-modern patterns. The flat top is decorated with the hallmark black-and-tan 'Courtly Check' pattern, while the three drawers and sides feature alternating diagonal pink and green 'Courtly Stripe' detailing. The center face is hand-painted with an idyllic, soft landscape scene depicting lush trees set against rolling hills and distant blue waters. The composition is bordered by heavy, relief-molded faux-gilt scrollwork and accented with hanging black fabric tassels on the pull handles. H 35" x L 42.5" x Depth 21.5" Good pre-owned condition.
