Antique 19th Century Mahogany Sheraton Style Chest of Drawers C.1860

19th century
Description

An elegant antique Victorian mahogany chest of drawers dating to circa 1860, beautifully executed in the refined Sheraton taste and showcasing the timeless proportions and restrained elegance that made Sheraton-inspired furniture highly sought after throughout the nineteenth century.

Crafted from richly figured mahogany, the chest features five graduated drawers adorned with attractive ebony and boxwood string inlay, creating crisp architectural lines and subtle decorative contrast. The beautifully selected mahogany displays exceptional colour, depth and natural figuring, enhanced by over 160 years of careful ageing and patination.

Retaining its elegant bracket feet, shield-shaped escutcheons and attractive brass swan-neck handles, the chest offers a balance of practicality and sophistication that allows it to work equally well in both traditional and contemporary interiors.

Strictly Vetted Dealers

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

Sheraton style furniture originated in late eighteenth-century Britain, characterized by delicate proportions, straight lines, refined wood veneers, and subtle marquetry or stringing inlay.

Nineteenth-century chests were typically constructed using solid mahogany for structural elements and fine mahogany veneers for drawer fronts, supported by brass hardware and interior drawer linings made of pine or oak.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-cut dovetail joints, original brass handles or keyhole escutcheons, natural shrinkage marks in timber, and uneven secondary wood backing indicating period hand-craftsmanship.

Place the chest against a neutral or dark backdrop, decorating the tabletop with contemporary artwork, ceramic lamps, or modern sculptural objects to balance the rich timber tones.

Dust regularly using a soft dry cloth and apply a high-grade beeswax polish once or twice yearly. Keep the item away from direct sunlight, radiators, and high humidity to prevent timber warping or veneer cracking.
