A good quality George III mahogany chest of drawers, of classic two short over three long graduated drawer configuration, dating to circa 1790.
Constructed in richly figured mahogany, the chest displays particularly attractive grain throughout the drawer fronts, enhanced by delicate crossbanding to the top which frames the surface beautifully and adds refinement to the overall design. The proportions are pleasing and well balanced, typical of late 18th century workmanship.
The drawers retain their original brass swan-neck handles and escutcheons, a desirable feature that adds authenticity and character. The drawers are oak lined and traditionally constructed with fine dovetail joints, reflecting the quality of craftsmanship. They run smoothly and offer generous storage.
The chest stands on bracket feet, with a shaped apron and moulded base, giving the piece a confident stance while maintaining elegant simplicity. The warm, mellow patina has developed over time, highlighting th
...e depth and richness of the mahogany.
A handsome and practical example of late George III furniture, this chest would sit comfortably in both period and contemporary interiors, offering timeless design, excellent storage, and enduring craftsmanship.
