What is a brushing slide?

A brushing slide is a pull-out wooden shelf integrated into the upper section of the chest framework. Cabinet makers designed these boards to provide a temporary flat surface for folding garments or grooming without opening the main drawers.

What timber was used?

Primary construction relies on solid mahogany and flame mahogany veneers applied over robust secondary woods like oak. Cabinet makers also incorporated satinwood for contrasting stringing lines and inlay work across drawer fronts and tops.

How do I date a chest?

Dating relies on examining construction methods, timber choice, handle styles and overall proportions across the carcase. Hand-cut dovetails, secondary oak framing and specific foot profiles point toward eighteenth or nineteenth century workshop practices.
