Small Georgian Mahogany Chest with Slide

18th century
Description

A Very Good Quality 18th Century Georgian Mahogany Chest Of Small Proportion Retaining Good Colour And Patina Throughout, The Well Figured Top Over Brushing Slide And Four Graduated Long Drawers Retaining Original Brass Swan Neck Handles Raised On Elegant Original Shaped Bracket Feet.

Whilst the design and form of this Georgian chest is relatively typical for the period it was made, the diminutive, compact proportions are quite unusual.

It also retains a good colour and surface throughout and remains in good condition with very little restoration, or damage of consequence to speak of. The retention of its original brass handles and its original bracket feet is another indicator of how well loved and cherished this item has been throughout the years of its life.

Perfect for use in a variety of different rooms around the home this chest is incredibly functional and is still as fit for purpose as the day it was made. It’s even small enough to serve a purpose as a bedside table if required.

We believe this chest is great value for something so beautiful which offers so much function and will go on to be used and utilised for many years to come by the eventual purchaser.

Should somebody be looking for an antique pair of chests of drawers, or two similar for either side of a bed, or anywhere else in a room for that matter, then it would definitely be worth considering this chest of drawers alongside another which we presently have in stock which you can view using the link below. Stylistically they are very similar indeed and they would work well together in a room as a matched pair of georgian chests. There are of course obvious differences in dimensions (although these are pretty minor) and the timber is slightly different, but overall they certainbly sit well together in terms of handles, feet, having a slide and just overall look. You can view the other chest of drawers below.

Strictly Vetted Dealers

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

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

Georgian chests of drawers typically feature symmetrical proportions, rich native or imported hardwoods such as mahogany, brass swan-neck handles, and distinctive bracket or bun feet.

Craftsmen primarily utilised solid or veneered mahogany, oak, and pine, often employing hand-cut dovetail joints for drawer construction alongside brass handles and escutcheons.

Authentic pieces display hand-sawn timber marks, hand-cut dovetails with minor irregularities, brass hardware showing natural oxidisation, and solid oak or pine drawer linings.

Position the chest as a focal point in a hallway or bedroom, balancing its dark wood tone with neutral wall shades, modern table lamps, or minimal ceramic vessels.

Keep the wood away from direct heat sources and prolonged sunlight to prevent timber movement, and apply a natural beeswax polish annually using a soft cotton cloth.
