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.

A chest on chest, also called a tallboy, is a traditional piece of storage furniture comprising two distinct chest sections stacked vertically. Designed during the Georgian period, the upper chest is slightly narrower than the base section to create visual balance and structural stability.

Georgian tallboys were primarily constructed from solid mahogany or oak carcass wood with flame mahogany or satinwood veneers. Drawer construction typically features hand-cut dovetail joints, oak or pine drawer linings, brass bail handles, and bracket feet.

Authentic pieces feature irregular hand-sawn timber marks, hand-cut dovetails of varying sizes, and original brass fittings with square nuts or cast spigots. Original patination inside the drawers and consistent natural wear around keyholes and base brackets also indicate age.

A tall chest on chest serves as a focal piece in bedrooms, hallways, or living spaces alongside minimalist modern lighting or contemporary artwork. Balancing its dark wood presence with lighter wall colours and neutral textiles highlights the rich tone of the timber.

To preserve the timber, keep the chest away from direct heat sources and sunlight to prevent drying or veneer lifting. Clean surfaces with a dry microfibre cloth and apply a quality beeswax polish once or twice a year following the grain.
