FAQs

A tallboy, also known as a chest-on-chest, is a double chest of drawers originating in the 18th century, designed with an upper chest mounted onto a slightly larger lower chest to provide maximised vertical storage.

Georgian tallboys were commonly constructed using solid oak or pine frameworks faced with figured walnut, mahogany, or fruitwood veneers, fitted with cast brass drop handles and brass escutcheons.

Authentic 18th-century examples feature hand-cut dovetail joints, oak or pine drawer linings with cross-grain construction, steel locks, and evidence of two distinct, separable upper and lower carcass sections.

A tallboy functions effectively as a focal piece in modern bedrooms, dressing rooms, or wide hallways, providing vertical balance against low-profile contemporary furnishings.

Maintain walnut veneer by keeping the piece away from direct sunlight and heat sources, dusting regularly with a microfibre cloth, and applying beeswax polish sparingly once or twice a year.
