The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

A chest on chest, also known as a tallboy, is a piece of furniture comprising two stacked chests of drawers, developed during the 18th century to maximise vertical storage space in grand residences.

Georgian examples were typically constructed from solid and veneered mahogany, featuring hand-dovetailed drawer joints, oak or pine drawer linings, and cast brass swan-neck handles with pierced escutcheons.

Key indicators include hand-sawn dovetail joints with slight irregularities, secondary timber oxidisation in pine or oak drawer casings, original hand-cut lock plates, and natural shrinkage lines along the timber base rails.

A tallboy serves as an architectural anchor in a bedroom, hallway, or dining space, contrasting effectively with clean-lined contemporary art, neutral linen textiles, or minimalist lighting.

Maintain stable atmospheric humidity levels to prevent timber movement, position the piece away from direct heat sources, and nourish the surface using a natural beeswax polish applied along the wood grain.
