This Edwardian chest of drawers comes from Heals of London, with maker stamps visible on the locks. Constructed from satin walnut in a warm brown colour, the piece has a rectangular top above a two-over-three drawer arrangement featuring horizontal reeded mouldings and dark metal drop handles. The carcass stands on a solid plinth base, showing the natural grain and light surface wear consistent with age. Measuring 106 cm high, 104 cm wide and 51 cm deep, the unit provides generous storage for folded garments or linens. Suitable for a bedroom or dressing room, the traditional design integrates smoothly into both period and contemporary domestic interiors. The flat top surface offers display space for lamps, framed photographs or decorative objects, while the graduated drawers organise clothes effectively. The classic English country house aesthetic brings warmth and utility to a domestic setting without overwhelming existing furniture.
