About the Item

A Very Attractive And Charming Early 18th Century, Queen Anne Period, Walnut Chest Having Superbly Figured Quarter Veneered Top, With Elegant Banded Decoration, Over Two Short And Three Long Drawers, With Replacement Brasswear, Raised On Replacement Turned Bun Feet. For an item of furniture which is over 300 years old it is amazing to note that it is as fit for purpose as the day it was made. It has also remained in remarkably good condition for something that would no doubt have borne heavy usage over the majority of its life. There is attractive banded decoration to the top, along with further inlay to the drawers. The handles are old replacements, but very much in the style which the originals would have been and sit really nicely on the chest. The feet are also all replaced, but this is extremely common for items of this age. The replacements are totally in keeping with what the chest would originally have had and therefore look perfectly appropriate on the piece. Certainly this chest of drawers is both beautiful and functional and would suit a whole variety of spaces around the home in which it may be required. As with all items which we offer for sale it has been inspected by our highly skilled antique furniture restorers and received a natural wax polish in the traditional manner before being offered for sale. Circa 1705. Height 34.5in. Width 38in. Depth 21.5in.
