Georgian 18th Century Miniature Tallboy Chest On Chest
About the Item
An Exceptionally Rare And Untouched 18th Century, Georgian Mahogany, Miniature, Or Childs Size, Chest On Chest, Or Tallboy, Having Elegant Blind Fretwork Carved Decoration To Top, Over Three Short And Six Long Drawers, Retaining Original Brass Turned Knobs, Raised On Elegant Original Ogee Shaped Bracket Feet, Retaining Exceptional Colour And Patina Throughout.
This is a wonderfully rare collectors item, as well as being a very functional and wonderful piece of original antique 18th century furniture.
As you will notice from the description we are unsure whether to describe as a piece of childs furniture, or a piece of miniature furniture, as frankly the scale which it is on is almost exactly between the norm for each. Most likely is that it was made as a simple one off commission piece, perhaps to match a full size variant already made and sit in the same room.
One thing we are certain of however is how rare it is and what fantastic condition it remains in. Its very, very difficult to find items like this and especially ones that remain in such good untouched condition. It retains a wonderful rich colour and surface and would be an absolute delight in any spot it is positioned.
Both the brass handles and the ogee feet are original and there is very little historic restoration to speak of, just a few old small repairs here and there which have been sympathetically carried out historically.
As with all items we offer for sale this antique miniature chest on chest has been inspected and attended to in our workshops by our highly skilled, specialist trained, antique furniture restorers and received a natural wax polish before being offered for sale to ensure that it is in excellent condition and ready for immediate placement within the home.

Located in Bedfordshire, GB
A very good quality mid 18th century chippendale period Georgian Mahogany chest, having well figured top over slide and four long drawers, retaining original brass swan neck handles, raised on elegant original shaped bracket feet.
Whilst a relatively commonly found design and form for a Georgian Chest of this period, this particualr chest boasts some exceptional features which set it apart from many. These include the exceptional quality of construction, the use of the well figured, rich mahogany timbers and the practical dimensions.
The colour and patina throughout remain excellent and overall it is in good condition with very little restoration, or damage of consequence to speak of. The retention of its original brass handles and its original bracket feet is another indicator of how well loved and cherished this item has been throughout the years of its life.
Perfect for use in a variety of different rooms around the home this chest is incredibly functional and is still as fit for purpose as the day it was made. It’s even just about small enough to serve a purpose as a bedside table if required.

Georgian 18th Century Mahogany Kneehole Desk

A superb quality and extremely attractive 18th century, Chippendale period, georgian mahogany kneehole desk, having well figured rectangular top over slide, central cupboard and arrangement of drawers, retaining original rococo brass handles, raised on original shaped bracket feet.
Generally, kneehole deeks are regarded as a smaller, more compact version of the more typically found pedestal desk, with some form of an arrangement of drawers around a central set recessed cupboard being the form which one can expect to come across. There are of course various different designs to be found along the same theme, but as a general rule that is the form you will usually find in a georgian kneehole desk...
