Description

Unusual William IV Tall Beautifully Figured Antique Wellington Chest

This Unusual William IV Tall Beautifully Figured Antique Wellington Chest dates from around 1835 and was named after the famous Duke of Wellington’s victory of 1815. It has a moulded lift up lid with key with working lock above six graduating mahogany lined beautifully figured drawers with moulded edges and turned handles. This chest is particularly unusual due to the fact that it has double hinged sides and beautifully carved corbels. This breathtaking piece stands on a moulded plinth and still owns the original backboards. The mahogany has been finished to a rich shade with a striking grain, good patina, is in very good condition and has been beautifully cleaned using a traditional form of wax finishing.
