circa: 1890 width: 43 height: 40 length: 21 This exquisite walnut chest of drawers was English-made by hand in Victorian England around 1890. Having undergone a recent restoration that includes new hardware, new walnut veneers and a new base, the chest now looks remarkably stunning. The burl walnut displays a deep, lustrous complexion and a striking grain, which are complemented by lovely walnut crossbanding. Each drawer of course features hand-cut dovetailed joints, although they operate with some stiffness, while the shaped bracket feet are as sturdy as they are elegant. Because the veneers are new, there is really no wear to speak of, although the walnut has been hand-distressed to look like an antique. The locks also no longer function, but otherwise this chest remains in excellent condition.
