Description

A Very Good Quality George III Period, 18th Century, Mahogany Chest, Retaining Rich Colour Throughout, With Exceptionally Well Figured Top Over Two Short And Three Long Drawers, Retaining Original Brass Swan Neck Handles, Raised On Original Shaped Bracket Feet. 

This good quality and functional georgian chest of drawers is very much typical of the mid 18th century. It boasts construction using high grade timbers and is well made. Despite being relatively plain in its overall design it is also actually quite attractive with the mahogant having a good rich colour and the top itself being exceptionally well figured. 

It also boasts original swan neck handles and is still raised on its original shaped bracket feet, both features worthy of note. 

Perfect for use in a variety of different rooms around the home this chest is incredibly functional and is still as fit for purpose as the day it was made.

We believe this chest is great value for something so beautiful which offers so much function and will go on to be used and utilised for many years to come by the eventual purchaser.

As with all items we offer for sale this georgian mahogany chest has been examined in our workshops by our highly skilled, traditional antique furniture restorers and received a natural wax polish, before being presented for sale. Please note however that there is currently no key for the locks, however all of the drawers are open and fully operational.

This George III mahogany chest of drawers is a Georgian piece dating from the 18th century, finished in a rich brown tone with a figured top. It incorporates a two over three drawer configuration fitted with original brass swan-neck handles, brass keyhole escutcheons, and shaped bracket feet. The timber displays natural grain variation across the front and top surfaces, alongside visible variations in wood tone and subtle signs of age to the polished finish. Measuring 94 cm high by 95 cm wide and 67 cm deep, the chest functions as a practical storage unit suitable for placement in a bedroom, landing, or living space to hold clothing and household items.

FAQs

George III furniture, dating from 1760 to 1820, is characterised by classical proportions, clean architectural lines, and the extensive use of high-quality imported Cuban and West Indian mahogany timber.

Georgian cabinetmakers primarily utilised solid mahogany or veneered mahogany over oak or pine carcasses, fitted with cast brass handles, escutcheons, and hand-cut dovetail jointing.

Authentic pieces feature hand-sawn drawer linings, hand-cut dovetail joints showing slight variations, original iron or steel locks behind brass keyhole escutcheons, and natural wear on the bracket feet.

A Georgian chest serves as a grounding focal point in an entryway or bedroom when offset by modern neutral walls, contemporary ceramic table lamps, and structured abstract artwork.

Keep the wood away from direct sunlight and artificial heat sources, wipe clean with a soft microfibre cloth, and apply a natural beeswax polish twice a year to preserve the original patina.
