The Documented John Teague 18th Century Goncalo Alves Serpentine Chest of Drawers. Signed ‘J N Teague, Falm, 1779’ The chest showcases exquisite use of Gonçalo Alves, a rare and exotic hardwood renowned for its striking grain patterns, durability, and deep, lustrous patina. This exceptional timber adds a unique richness to the chest’s surface. The chest boasts a gracefully serpentine-shaped front, a hallmark of fine Georgian furniture, lending a sense of fluidity and refinement. Four Graduating Drawers: The chest comprises four oak-lined, full-length drawers, elegantly graduated in size for balance and proportion. Each drawer cock beaded, finely inlaid and retains its original solid brass Rococo handles and escutcheons, enhancing both beauty and authenticity. The beautifully Goncalo Alves top complements the serpentine profile, while subtle moulded edges add definition to the form.

The serpentine front—a feature highly prized in period furniture—demonstrates the cabinetmaker’s skill in shaping and finishing.
