This Edwardian solid walnut chest of drawers dates from around 1910, made and stamped by J Shoolbred & Co. The piece presents a warm brown colour with rich figuring across the wood, finished with brass keyhole escutcheons and round turned wooden knobs. Design details include a two over three drawer configuration, reeded side uprights, a simple tram-line design to the pilasters flanking the drawers, and a solid plinth base. The chest measures 106 cm high, 105 cm wide, and 51.5 cm deep. It functions as a practical bedroom storage chest or a hallway statement piece for organising clothing, linens, or household items in a home today.

Manufactured during the reign of King Edward VII between 1901 and 1910, Edwardian furniture integrated 18th-century design influences with high-quality timber construction and lighter proportions than Victorian predecessors.

James Shoolbred & Co constructed items using hardwoods such as walnut, mahogany, and oak, incorporating hand-cut dovetail drawer joints, turned wooden handles, and solid timber linings.

Authentic pieces frequently display stamped maker marks or brass plates on top drawer edges, precise dovetail joinery, original brass escutcheons, and distinctive flame grain patterns in the walnut veneer.

Place the piece as a functional storage anchor in a bedroom, hallway, or living space, balancing its warm timber tones with contemporary lighting, neutral linen textiles, or modern decorative ceramics.

Dust surfaces regularly using a dry microfibre cloth and apply a thin layer of natural beeswax polish along the grain twice per year, avoiding direct sunlight, radiators, and silicone sprays.
