Description

A smart and extremely well made pair of antique mahogany military campaign chest of drawers. They were made in England, they date from around the 1930’s.

The quality is excellent, they are a great size to be used as decent sized bedside chests, or as side chests / tables around the home; they are very functional. The mahogany has a lovely colour tone and patina, they have high quality brass mounts and naval handles. There are also leather topped tray slide shelves that pull out from beneath the tops.

We have had them recently re-polished, the condition is excellent for their age. There are a few very small marks and indentations here and there beneath the polish, commensurate for age.

Width – 23 inches , 58 cm

Depth – 16 inches , 41 cm

Height – 24 inches , 61 cm

FAQs

A military campaign chest is a type of modular furniture designed to be easily dismantled and transported by British military officers during the 18th, 19th, and early 20th centuries.

They are typically constructed from dense hardwoods such as mahogany, camphor, or teak, reinforced with brass corners, straps, and recessed handles to withstand rigorous travel.

Authentic pieces generally feature two-part stacking construction, dovetailed drawer joints, inset brass hardware, and carrying handles on the sides, showing signs of period hand-craftsmanship and natural timber ageing.

These versatile pieces function effectively as bedside tables, hallway storage, or living room accent units, pairing well with both contemporary minimalism and traditional decor.

Maintain the wood by dusting with a soft, dry cloth and applying traditional beeswax periodically, avoiding direct sunlight and excessive humidity to preserve the finish.
