It was listed by Marylebone Antiques. Sold pieces stay on Sellingantiques as a record of what has passed through, and the next one is rarely far away.
Marylebone Antiques has dated this piece to the 1860s.
The ‘James Shoolbred’ label is on the back & his name is also stamped on the top of the right hand drawer. You can see these in the images. The drawers are graduated in depth & the bottom one is extra deep, because it’s attached to the plinth base. They have stunning original handles, original locks & very fine dovetails. This chest is quite a rare item, especially in such good original condition & I haven’t seen one as nice as this.
