Description

A fantastic antique walnut chest of drawers, dating from around the 1830-40 period.

It is of outstanding quality and has a beautiful design. It is a great size, with plenty of storage space inside the generous drawers. The drawers have fine hand cut dovetailed joints and wonderful turned handles. The drawers fronts have lovely moulding around the edges, the front corners of the chests have beautifully made corbels at the top, middle and lower edges.

We have had this re-polished, the condition is excellent for its age. The walnut has acquired a gorgeous colour tone and natural patina over the years, with some minor wear remaining beneath the polish here and there.

FAQs

Walnut became a dominant timber in British furniture making during the late 17th century, prized for its rich grain and adaptability to veneering and marquetry before mahogany gained prominence in the mid-18th century.

Authentic period chests typically utilise solid walnut or walnut veneers applied to secondary woods such as oak or pine, joined using hand-cut dovetails on drawer carcasses and traditional wooden runners.

Authenticity is assessed by examining construction marks, hand-cut dovetail joints, timber shrinkage patterns, period-appropriate hardware, and the presence of genuine patina and oxidisation consistent with age.

An antique wooden chest adds warmth and textural contrast when placed against neutral walls, serving as a functional focal point topped with minimalist contemporary accessories or organic elements.

Preservation requires maintaining stable indoor humidity levels, avoiding direct sunlight to prevent fading, and periodically applying traditional beeswax while avoiding silicone-based polishes.
