FAQs

A chest on chest, also known as a tallboy, is a traditional furniture design featuring two stacked chests of drawers, developed during the 18th century to maximize vertical storage space.

Eighteenth-century oak chests were typically constructed using solid English or European oak timber, featuring hand-dovetailed drawer joints, oak drawer linings, and cast brass swan-neck or bail handles.

Authentic Georgian furniture often exhibits hand-sawn timber markings, hand-cut dovetails of varying proportions, original steel or iron locks, and natural wear patterns along the drawer runners and feet.

Place an antique tallboy as a focal point against a neutral backdrop in a bedroom or hallway, balancing its visual weight with contemporary artwork or refined table lamps.

Dust regularly with a dry, lint-free cloth and apply a high-quality beeswax polish once or twice a year to nourish the timber and protect the original patination while avoiding direct heat sources.
