Limed Oak 18th Century Antique Chest of Drawers

This beautiful oak antique chest of drawers dates from the 18th century, circa 1740, and has a very early limed finish. It has a rectangular top over a two over three graduating drawer configuration. All the drawers are oak lined with geometric shaped mouldings to the front along with period style handles and key escutcheons. The chest stands on shaped bracket feet and is in a very clean condition considering its age. It is the perfect example of an antique piece that, style wise, would fit wonderfully in modern surroundings. The early lime finish gives the oak a lovely medium shade highlighting the striking grain. It has good patina, is in very good condition and has been beautifully cleaned using a traditional form of wax finishing.
