This is a superb quality pair of antique Victorian mahogany bedside chests, circa 1860. They each have three graduated working drawers with working locks and a key.
Both chests feature a large deep bottom drawer; the drawer fronts incorporate two dummy drawers (designed to look like two separate drawers). Each bedside chest boasts lovely chamfered moulded round cornered tops; this style is reflected in the design of the original top quality rounded plinths. Both chests are constructed of top quality mahogany timber; the drawer fronts are finished with a good quality mahogany feathering. The quality is reflected in the weight of these bedsides; they are heavy to lift! During this period, England imported good quality timber from its colonies.
These bedsides feature a dark rich, yet classic, red and brown mahogany colour. They have a fantastic colour and patination; this can only be achieved through age and years of care and cleaning they have received.
