FAQs

A chest on stand, also known as a tallboy or highboy, is a two-part storage cabinet popular during the 18th century, consisting of an upper chest of drawers mounted on a lower stand with raised legs.

These pieces were predominantly constructed using walnut or walnut veneers over oak and pine carcases, accompanied by brass drop handles and escutcheons.

Authentic 18th-century examples feature hand-cut dovetail joints, oak or pine drawer linings with grain running front-to-back, and historic wear around the handles and base structure.

Position the piece as a focal point in a hallway, bedroom, or living area, balancing its rich timber tones with neutral paint palettes and contemporary art.

Protect the timber finish by keeping the piece away from direct heat sources and sunlight, dusting regularly with a dry cloth, and applying beeswax sparingly once per year.
