Description

Antique Georgian Bow Fronted Inlaid Mahogany Chest of 4 Drawers

A truly stunning Georgian Bow front chest of drawers.

We are delighted to bring to you the finest example of a very rare Georgian (circa 1820) 4 deep descending drawer chest of drawers in Mahogany which has been sympathetically restored and ideal for any period property. This chest of drawers is in an outstanding condition featuring an unusual yet very useful large double drawer to the two top drawers. The chest has its original wax polished finish with a lovely rich even Mahogany colour throughout. This chest features Rosewood and Boxwood inlays to every side with cock beaded edges which frames its stunning Mahogany drawer fronts. The drawers also unusually feature bone keyhole escutcheons in front of its brass locks (no keys) and beautifully turned Mahogany knobs. The finely dovetailed Ash lined drawers are in great condition, the drawers are smoothly operating and are clean inside. The drawer runners have been repaired as necessary so this chest has no drawer drop when opened and are good for many more years of use. The chest of drawers stands on its inlaid serpentine front going to splayed bracket feet with shaped back legs.

There are no loose joints or wobbles and the chest is free from woodworm. This chest of drawers has been carefully cleaned and waxed, maintaining its original patina whilst giving a lovely natural sheen.

Please note; This item is in fantastic condition for its age as shown by the photographs below. Being an antique item there are obviously marks, scratches, dents and some old repairs here and there as expected with anything of this age. However, we feel that these points are which adds to its charm and character to a piece.
