An Early Georgian Solid Oak 5 Drawer Chest of Drawers to Wax / Paint

18th century
Sold 15 July 2026 · D & J Hunt Antiques
This “Early Georgian Solid Oak 5 Drawer Chest of Drawers to Wax / Paint” found a buyer.

It was listed by D & J Hunt Antiques. Sold pieces stay on Sellingantiques as a record of what has passed through, and the next one is rarely far away.

Description

This chest of drawers is in good condition. We have professionally hand stripped it chemically and sanded it ready to wax or paint. I personally think this would look excellent painted.

The chest of drawers would look well in an old or modern property in a large bedroom.

The chest stands on georgian bracket feet supporting the main section. There are two small drawers over three large drawers. The drawers have original swan neck handles and their key escutcheons. The drawers have dovetail joints and are pine lined. The top is in good condition with a slight bull nosed edge.

The height is 103cm, the width is 98cm and the depth is 54cm.

Date of Manufacture

D & J Hunt Antiques has dated this Early Georgian Oak Chest to the Georgian era.

Delivery Terms

WE OFFER FREE DELIVERY TO ENGLAND, WALES, AND SCOTLAND (BELOW PERTH)

Shipping /delivery is equally as important to us as the item of furniture itself. It is simple; we deliver everything personally in England / Wales so this way we are 100% sure that the item / furniture reaches our customers safe and sound. We NEVER use couriers. Delivery is generally within 7-14 days of purchase. We guarantee delivery anywhere in England / Wales within 21 days of purchase.

Deliveries to Scotland as far north as Perth are guaranteed within 6 weeks of purchase. If delivery is required above Perth in Scotland please contact James on 07957 392 074 or

james@davidhuntantiques.com for a price.

Deliveries are either carried out by David or James as one member of the team is required to stay in the warehouse, therefore we do require assistance from the van into your hallway with the item of furniture. We have set delivery days and once the van is loaded (a day prior to delivery) David will call customers to arrange a two hour delivery time slot. Customers will also receive a text when delivery is 30 minutes away.

It is really helpful if customers can provide their ‘what3words’ location to make delivery as smooth

as possible, especially properties in rural locations.

Ireland Deliveries

We do use a very good courier company called DVM Service to deliver goods to Ireland. We ask the customer to pay this company direct for the delivery charge and we then liaise with DVM regarding collection of a customer’s item of furniture to be shipped to Ireland.

Europe & Rest of the World

We do not ship to Europe or the Rest of the World.

Early Georgian furniture, spanning the reigns of George I and George II, is characterised by architectural proportions, robust construction, and a transition from heavier walnut to native oak and imported mahogany.

Pieces from this era were constructed using solid native timbers such as oak, featuring hand-cut dovetail joints, planked backs, and pegged tenons, often fitted with cast brass drop handles and escutcheons.

Authenticity is identified through hand-planed timber surfaces, irregular hand-cut dovetailing, period-appropriate timber shrinkage, and original iron or brass hardware fixings.

An antique chest of drawers adds grounding texture to contemporary spaces and functions well when paired with minimalist lighting and modern abstract art to create visual balance.

Preserve antique oak by maintaining stable indoor humidity levels, avoiding direct sunlight exposure, and treating the timber periodically with traditional beeswax to nourish the wood.
