circa: 2000 width: 36 height: 42 length: 20 This gorgeous antique mahogany campaign chest was crafted in England around 1960. Decommissioned decades ago, the chest was recently restored by a small traditional cabinetmaker who specializes in salvaging UK military chests. This particular chest was restored to beautiful effect, so the mahogany displays an incredibly rich complexion and a pronounced grain that are complemented beautifully by the brass hardware that really defines the appearance of this chest. All five drawers still slide in and out very smoothly and feature dovetailed joints, which is one of many indicators that this chest is an unusually high-quality item. As a campaign chest, this piece would have originally been constructed to disassemble into several sections so that the officer using it could travel more easily in the field. Today, the chest has been retrofitted to remain in one piece, but the places where the chest would have separated remain easy to spot, particularly on the sides. Although very sturdy, this chest has sustained a typical assortment of wear scuffs and wear marks, several of which can be seen in the pictures accompanying this description. However, the superficial wear on this antique chest is very minor, and only adds to the already charming character of this piece. Overall condition is therefore very good,.and this piece would certainly make a fine addition to any furniture collection.   « Less

circa: 1940 width: 51 height: 33 length: 26 This exquisite burl walnut chest of drawers, styled much like the popular Bombay chest, was crafted in France around 1940. Recently, this piece was treated to a full restoration at the hands of a third-generation cabinetmaker in England. Included in the restoration were the addition of new burl walnut veneers, new hardware, and a fine French polish with a hand-rubbed wax coating. The result is a marvelous chest that would look great in any setting, and a structural integrity that will be sure to keep this chest sturdy and beautiful for generations to come. Very few signs of any original wear remain, but if you look closely at the skirt, you can see some slight wear to the edges, and the top central drawer retains an original purple felt lining that has worn significantly over the years. Originally, this chest would have also had a mirror or some other sort of backsplash attached to it, since the back shows marks where said attachment would have secured to the base.   « Less
