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 Victorian era.
It’s solid camphor wood with a wonderful colour & figuring to the wood. The proportions are quite small & all the drawers are deep. The drawers also have the original locks & wooden escutcheons. They have the original sunken brass military handles & this chest sits on original bun feet. I particularly like the floral carvings on the back gallery.
This military chest of drawers was probably made in the 1860’s period & it’s full of character. The colour of the wood is similar to satinwood.
