Antique Inlaid Mahogany Chest of Drawers

1900 - 1920
Description

A wonderful antique inlaid mahogany chest of drawers in the Georgian style. This was made in England, it dates from around the 1920’s period.

This is one of a matched pair that we have, they are identical in shape and size, with slightly different inlaid designs and handles. The price shown is for one chest.

It is of very fine quality, it is a very useful smallish size and has a beautiful design. It sits on splayed bracket feet, has lovely brass handles and gorgeous inlaid satin wood around the cross banded top and drawer fronts. The drawers all run smoothly, this has lots of storage space. The mahogany has an absolutely gorgeous colour tone and patina.

We have recently had this re-polished, the condition is excellent for its age.

This English chest of drawers follows the Georgian style in mahogany, brass, boxwood and satinwood, dating from the 1920 period. The rich timber displays a warm brown colour with a polished finish and natural grain variations across the surfaces. Fine string inlay borders accent the drawer fronts, complemented by distinctive oval brass drop handles mounted on shaped brass backplates. The top two small drawers sit above three graduated full-width drawers below, all mounted within a clean rectangular frame. The piece rests upon splayed bracket feet beneath a gently curved decorative apron at the base. Measuring 74 cm high, 64 cm wide, and 38 cm deep, the compact dimensions suit placement in a bedroom, dressing room, hallway, or living space as a bedside table or accent storage unit. The sturdy construction provides practical organisation for small items and linens while maintaining a traditional aesthetic suited to classic country house interiors.

FAQs

Originating in the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, these chests feature structured geometric proportions, flame mahogany veneers, and fine string inlay bordering the drawer fronts.

Craftspeople typically utilised solid mahogany framing with cut veneers, hand-jointed dovetail drawers, pressed brass oval backplate handles, and boxwood or satinwood stringing.

Authentic period pieces exhibit hand-sawn drawer bottoms, hand-cut dovetail joinery with minor size variations, original steel locks, and genuine oxidisation on the timber and brassware.

Position the piece as a focal point in a hallway or bedroom, pairing its warm timber tones with contemporary artwork, modern table lamps, or neutral woven textiles.

Dust regularly with a dry microfiber cloth, apply a beeswax polish once or twice per year following the wood grain, and keep the piece away from direct radiators or damp conditions.
