In A Nutshell Antiques and Interiors has dated this piece to the 18th Century.
They are a cottage set, having been made in two parts to get into small spaces. The two halves sit on wooden pegs and are very sturdy as a solid piece but split to allow for easy transport.
They are in good condition for their age and have developed a lovely rich patina over the years. The drawers open smoothly and are generally clean and tidy inside. They have picked up various small knocks, marks and signs of age and use and the top planks have shrunk slightly over the years. There have been various minor historic repairs but nothing detrimental or untoward. The feet have been replaced at some point but they suit the chest well and the whole piece is strong and sturdy. They have been cleaned and gently polished and are ready for use.
The best description comes from the photos so please look at them all carefully and if you have any questions just ask.
