FAQs

A tallboy is a piece of vertical storage furniture featuring a cabinet or upper chest section situated above a set of lower drawers. During the 1920s, craftsmen frequently finished these pieces in highly figured burr walnut veneers to highlight the natural swirl pattern of the wood.

Pieces from this era typically feature solid timber carcasses veneered with thin cuts of burr walnut to create symmetrical book-matched grain patterns. They generally include hand-dovetailed drawer joints, traditional brass backplate handles, and shaped arch tops resting on cabriole or bracket feet.

Look for characteristic design elements of the era, such as gentle arched pediments, subtle Queen Anne or Art Deco shapes, hand-carved details, and authentic drawer construction with oak or pine secondary woods. Natural age-related oxidisation in the finish and original brass hardware also signal period authenticity.

In modern interiors, a burr walnut tallboy serves as a warm accent piece against neutral walls, balancing minimalist lines with organic texture. It functions well in bedrooms, spacious hallways, or living rooms as a compact yet high-capacity storage unit.

Dust regularly with a dry, soft microfibre cloth and apply a high-quality beeswax polish sparingly once or twice a year to nourish the timber. Keep the piece away from direct heat sources and strong sunlight to prevent warping and uneven fading of the delicate walnut veneer.
