Walnut Chest English Queen Anne Period, Circa 1700

18th century
For Sale by Belgravia Lane
Description

This is a very beautiful Queen Anne period Walnut Chest, Circa 1690 to 1700

The Chest has two short over three long graduated drawers with matching thick cross grained thumb mouldings to the top and lower edge of the chest at the front and sides. The chest sits on four flattened bun feet.

This chest has superb small proportions and a wonderful colour and patination.

The hand cut figured walnut veneers to the top and drawer fronts have each been carefully chosen to match. The top, sides and drawer fronts are cross banded with feather ( herring bone) banding to the top. The drawers are oak lined, The escutcheons and handles are true to the period but the handles are probably replacements which is normal for a piece of this age. There is evidence of at least one handle change. ( It would be very suspicious if this were not the case).

Excellent small proportions;

Width across top: 35.38 inches

Width across feet: 35.75 inches

Overall a very beautiful early walnut Chest that would grace any home.

Condition

Very Good

Strictly Vetted Dealers

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.

Secure Transit

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.

The Sustainable Choice

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.

FAQs

Furniture from the Queen Anne era (17021714) is distinguished by its refined proportions, emphasis on the natural grain of figured walnut veneers, and elegant structural forms such as cabriole legs or turned bun feet.

Chests from this period were typically constructed using native timber frameworks, such as pine or oak, veneered with figured walnut, burr walnut, or fruitwood, and fitted with brass drop handles and escutcheons.

Authentic pieces exhibit heavy, hand-cut dovetail joints, thick drawer linings made of oak or deal, and signs of hand-planing on the back panel along with natural timber shrinkage and surface oxidisation.

An early walnut chest serves as an anchor piece in modern rooms, contrasting effectively against neutral walls, contemporary minimalist lighting, or minimalist soft furnishings.

Keep the wood away from direct heat sources and sunlight to prevent drying or fading, and apply a high-quality beeswax polish once or twice a year to protect the original patina.
