Hand-cut drawer dovetails: hand joinery that fixes the construction before mechanisation.
Beech drawer linings: secondary timber that fits northern European cabinet work.
Shaped boxwood line inlays: neoclassical ornamentation that fits the styling.
Fine surface crazing and minor shrinkage: signs of long age.

This is an independent date report produced by Sellingantiques using its own proprietary system. The process uses the photographs shown on this page. The system is never told the date the dealer has declared. This report shows that the two dates corroborate.

This Regency mahogany four-drawer chest of drawers displays a warm brown timber finish and stands upon splay feet. The piece includes four graduated drawers fitted with brass oval backplate handles and decorated with shaped boxwood line inlays, alongside reeded side pilasters and finely fluted canted corners. The surface exhibits a wonderful natural patina from age, reflecting the classic style of the period. Measuring 96.5 cm high, 114 cm wide and 55 cm deep, this practical storage item integrates well into a traditional or contemporary bedroom setting. It provides generous surface and drawer capacity for organising clothing or linens while serving as a refined decorative focal point against a living area or hallway wall.

FAQs

Originating in early 19th-century Britain, Regency furniture is characterised by classical symmetry, clean lines, and refined decorative details such as brass fittings, reeded columns, and exotic wood veneers.

High-grade mahogany was the primary timber choice, often highlighted with boxwood or ebony stringing, hand-cut oak or pine drawer linings, and cast brass backplate handles.

Look for hand-dovetailed drawer joints, oak or pine secondary woods inside drawers, period-correct brass backplate handles with cast details, and original splayed bracket feet.

Position the chest as a focal piece in a bedroom or hallway, balancing its rich timber tones with contemporary lighting, neutral walls, and curated ceramic or glassware accessories.

Dust regularly with a dry microfibre cloth and apply a high-quality beeswax polish once or twice a year, keeping the piece away from direct sunlight and central heating sources.
