FAQs

A Scotch chest of drawers is a distinctive nineteenth-century Scottish storage piece characterised by substantial height, a deep central hat drawer or arrangement of smaller top drawers, and prominent flanking columns or turned pilasters.

These chests were predominantly constructed using solid pine or oak carcases veneered with flame mahogany, featuring hand-cut dovetail joints, turned timber knobs, and solid plinth bases.

Authentic pieces feature hand-sawn drawer linings with visible planing marks, hand-cut dovetails, original iron or brass lock mechanisms, and consistent patination across the flame mahogany surfaces.

A large mahogany chest functions effectively as a focal piece in an entryway or bedroom, balanced with modern wall art and minimal contemporary lighting to offset the dark wood.

Dust surfaces regularly using a dry microfibre cloth and apply a natural beeswax polish twice a year, ensuring the piece is situated away from direct radiator heat and damp conditions.
