William and Mary Walnut Chest 17th Century

17th century
Description

A rare late 17th century William and Mary walnut chest of two long drawers below a deep storage chest. This form of chest is very unusual while the quality is exceptional. The carcase is veneered with finely figured chevron crossbanding and cross grained edging. Also the engraved brass handles and escutcheons are original, and of exceptional quality. The chest lock is integral to the escutcheon which again is very rare. All this points to the chest having been made by a reputable craftsman, although the provenance is not known at present. The Gerrit Jensen chest at Hampton Court Palace is of a similar nature and would have probably been used to store valuable textiles.

Height 43" 109cm

Width 41" 104cm

Depth 21" 53cm

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.
Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.
Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.
