ANTIQUE #SA1062590

Small Georgian Mahogany Chest With Slide

£3,500    $4,287    €4,149
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.
