Antique Mahogany Military Campaign Style Chest of Drawers

1920 - 1940
Description

A very smart and extremely well made 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. It is perfect for various settings around the home, as a bedside chest or even as a side table in a lounge. The back is nicely polished, so it can be used as a free standing item. The mahogany has a gorgeous colour tone and patina, offset beautifully by the brass military style handles and brass fixtures. There is a useful pull out slide shelf that comes out from beneath the top, the top has an inset oval brass plaque in the centre and exposed dovetailed joints on the upper edges.

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.

Depth – 13 inches , 33 cm

FAQs

Campaign furniture refers to pieces designed to be disassembled or easily packed for transport by military officers on campaigns during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries.

Campaign chests are traditionally constructed from dense hardwoods like mahogany or teak, fitted with flush brass corner brackets, strapwork, and recessed drop handles to prevent damage during transit.

Authentic pieces feature flush-fitting brass hardware, often split into two separate stackable sections, and include side carrying handles designed for mobile transport.

A campaign chest works effectively as a bedside table, hallway storage unit, or accent piece, pairing well with contemporary minimalist decor or traditional dark wood schemes.

Dust regularly with a soft microfibre cloth and apply beeswax polish periodically along the wood grain, while using a specialised metal cleaner sparingly on the brass hardware.
