Item Description
An exceptional and beautifully preserved chest, this piece showcases a rich tapestry of oyster-cut yew wood veneers and refined geometric string inlay.
The rectangular top, sides, and drawer fronts are decorated with oyster veneers, carefully laid in patterns to enhance the visual depth and movement of the grain. Delicate string inlay detailing forms fine arabesque lines and loops that add a touch of decorative sophistication to the surfaces.
The chest is fitted with a total of five drawers: two short drawers over three long, all with period-style brass handles and escutcheons, and arranged in a traditional graduated format. Each drawer is constructed with oak linings and features dovetail joinery, a testament to the quality of English cabinetmaking.
Raised on bun feet, the chest stands confidently and is proportioned to provide ample storage while maintaining an elegant, upright form. The colour has matured over time to a rich golden-brown tone, with a gently glowing patina.
A decorative, practical, and increasingly rare chest of drawers.
