Regency Bow Front Mahogany Chest of Drawers, Circa 1820

19th century
Description

A Regency mahogany bow front chest of drawers, circa 1820, with particularly attractive figured mahogany drawer fronts and a lovely warm colour.

The gently bowed top sits above two short over three long graduated drawers, all edged with fine cockbeading and retaining oval brass plate handles. The beautifully figured mahogany has been carefully selected across the drawer fronts, giving the chest a particularly decorative appearance.

Each drawer is traditionally constructed with dovetail joints and fitted with a brass escutcheon. The chest is raised on shaped bracket feet, which complement its elegant Regency proportions.

A very attractive and useful period chest, combining generous storage with a relatively restrained footprint. The rich figuring and bow-fronted form make this a particularly appealing example.

In good antique condition.

English, circa 1820.

FAQs

Originating in early 19th-century England during the Regency period, a bow front chest of drawers features a gently curved convex front facade designed to add visual elegance and maximise storage capacity.

Regency cabinetmakers predominantly utilised high-grade timbers such as flame mahogany veneer over pine or oak carcases, constructed with hand-cut dovetail joints and fitted with cast brass oval handles.

Authentic pieces from this era exhibit hand-sawn timber marks, irregular dovetail joints, cockbeaded drawer borders, original brass lock escutcheons, and natural patination across the backboards and timber surfaces.

A Regency chest functions as a focal storage piece in a hallway, bedroom, or living area when contrasted against neutral walls, contemporary table lighting, or structured modern artwork.

Dust surfaces regularly with a soft dry cloth and apply a high-quality beeswax polish once or twice per year, keeping the item away from direct sunlight, central heating sources, and fluctuating humidity.
