18th Century Style English Four Drawer Dresser, Bachelor Chest

About the Item

We are pleased to offer a classic 18th Century Style English Four Drawer Dresser, Bachelor Chest crafted with a lovely grain pattern wood veneer with four drawers constructed with traditional dovetail joinery. A fine example of 18th century style English craftsmanship, in 20th century condition. this elegant mahogany chest of drawers offers both refined presence and everyday practicality. An original style dating from the mid 18th century, but constructed more recently the chest is constructed from solids and veneers with a wonderfully warm, time-softened patina that only decades of careful use can bring. The design is classically English – restrained and well-proportioned – with four drawers, each with cockbeaded edging and fitted with the antiqued brass hardware. The drawers slide smoothly and provide ample storage, making this a highly functional piece as well as a decorative one. Raised on shaped bracket feet, with some light surface wear and minor signs of age throughout, all commensurate with a life well lived. The color is particularly attractive – a deep, mellow tone that speaks to the quality of the timber used. Perfect for a traditional bedroom, country house hallway, or even as a characterful anchor in a more contemporary interior, this is a versatile and enduringly stylish piece of English furniture.
