A striking 19th century burr walnut chest of drawers, richly figured and full of antique character. This Victorian-era piece features a classic configuration with three short drawers over three long drawers, all dressed with oval brass backplates and drop handles. The drawer fronts are adorned with bookmatched burr walnut veneers, showcasing gorgeous swirling grain patterns and natural symmetry.
Original turned mouldings add dimension to the drawer fronts, and a simple plinth base with bracket feet grounds the piece beautifully. This chest shows its age in the best way—worn, tactile, and deeply textural with a surface patina that reflects years of use.
Ideal for bedrooms, hallways, or living spaces that embrace an "old money" or grandmillennial aesthetic.
Structurally sound and all drawers run smoothly. Veneer losses and chips in some areas, particularly to the turned mouldings and around the lower plinth (see photos). Surface marks and signs of age throughout. Offered as-found for lovers of authentic antique character. A piece is missing off one of the back feet.
105 x 105 x 56cm
