Description

Quirky, estate-made chest on stand in oak, c. 1720. An unusual piece made almost entirely from oak with 5 long and 2 short drawers. The piece is made in the William and Mary style with double half round moulding on the carcass, a shaped apron on the stand, and short, 17th century style legs. However the piece post dates the period as fashion didn't filter through to rural areas until later. The handles are replacements but the rest of the piece is entirely original. The drawers are nailed both back and front. This simple, chunky piece exudes charm and is typical of the vernacular style during the 18th century.

FAQs

The chest on stand, or tallboy, evolved in the late 17th century as a development from the simpler chest of drawers, offering elevated storage while taking up less floor space.

Authentic period pieces are typically constructed from native English oak or walnut, featuring hand-cut dovetail joints, pegged framing, and solid timber secondary woods.

Examination of drawer construction, hand-forged or cast brass hardware, timber shrinkage patterns, and tool marks helps determine the age and authenticity of the piece.

This piece works well as a focal storage unit in a hallway or bedroom, contrasting effectively against neutral walls while adding warmth and historical texture to modern schemes.

Maintain stable humidity and temperature levels away from direct heat sources, and periodically nourish the timber with traditional beeswax to preserve the finish.
