Antique Mahogany Military Campaign Style Chest of Drawers

1920 - 1940
Description

A finely constructed and very smart antique mahogany military campaign style chest of drawers. This was made in England, it dates from around the 1930’s.

The quality is superb, this is a lovely and very useful size. The mahogany has a gorgeous colour tone and patina, offset beautifully by the brass military style handles and brass fixtures.

We have had this recently re-polished, the condition is excellent for its age. Just some minor wear remains here and there beneath the polish, commensurate for age.

This is one of a pair that we have, the other is listed separately but seen in the images.

Width – 29 inches , 73 cm

Depth – 12 inches , 30 cm

Height – 28 inches , 71 cm

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.

Military campaign furniture was developed in the 18th and 19th centuries for British military officers stationed abroad. It was constructed to be easily dismantled, transported, and reassembled on campaign without compromising durability.

These chests were typically crafted from resilient hardwoods such as mahogany, teak, or camphor wood to withstand climate changes. Heavy brass corners and recessed brass handles were fitted flush to prevent damage during transit.

Authentic pieces usually feature flush-fitting brass hardware, protective corner brackets, side carrying handles, and often split into two two-drawer sections to facilitate movement during travel.

A campaign chest functions well in contemporary bedrooms or study rooms, contrasting sleek minimalist lines with historic wood grain and brass accents.

Dust mahogany surfaces regularly with a soft dry cloth and apply bees wax periodically along the timber grain. Keep brass fittings free from harsh chemical cleaners to preserve natural oxidisation and patina.
