In a post earlier today I mentioned moving a dresser from our bedroom into the living room. As promised, I’m following up with additional sources for similar dressers you might like.
You may recall the vintage dresser I had in our previous house, pictured above. I still love that piece—its medallion-style drawer pulls and classic shape are what drew me to it. I still own the other dresser as well, and you’ll likely see it appear in my office or elsewhere in the house in the future. If you’re curious about the old house tour or paint colors from that room, those details are available on my site and in my coffee table book.
Many of you are searching for dressers with this look. These pieces are often called Swedish or Gustavian style dressers. Whether authentic antiques, reproductions, or modern interpretations, I’m drawn to the same clean lines, subtle ornamentation, and soft silhouettes. Below you’ll find a selection of dressers that capture that aesthetic.
If you enjoy hunting for secondhand finds, keep an eye on local vintage shops, Craigslist, estate sales, and flea markets—I’ve scored great pieces that way. Another option is to update a dresser you already own by refinishing and swapping out hardware to achieve that Swedish-inspired look.
If time is a factor or the perfect vintage piece doesn’t turn up, the following curated online sources offer ready-made options in the style I love. I hope this roundup helps you find a dresser you’ll enjoy.
