The oak lined drawers are cock beaded as you would expect, the knobs and escutcheons are brass
The chest has a wonderful patina, there have been a few very minor repairs over the years but they are very well done and difficult to spot. There is a tiny piece of cock beading missing and slight chipping on the veneers
A superb piece of Country House Chic and it is not too tall to look superb in a country cottage
