Description:
This is a fine quality antique English early Georgian walnut chest of drawers, with feather inlay, cross-banding and stunning patination, circa 1730, in excellent condition. This early Georgian chest displays a transitional design from the late Queen Anne to the George I period, evident with its use of materials, feather inlay to the drawer fronts, half-round moulded frame and bracket feet. The Georgian walnut chest of drawers is designed with two small drawers above three larger graduating drawers.

The top of the chest benefits from stunning mirrored quartered walnut veneers, bordered by wide walnut cross-banding and smaller feather cross-banding. The drawer fronts are also decorated with feather inlay against a backdrop of mirror matched figured walnut veneers, flanked by a pretty half-round moulded frame all of which is typical of this period. The drawers feature later period brass handles and back plates, which are of superb quality possibly from the later Georgian / early Victory period. The drawers also incorporate working steel lever locks (with key). The drawers are oak lined, with the boards running back to front, and are constructed with primitive hand-dovetailed joints.

The sides of the walnut chest retain the original decorative walnut, bordered by a cross-banded walnut cross-banding and the backboards are also original. The Georgian chest terminates on an elegant moulded frieze, which is raised on its original bracket feet. The frame of the chest has been constructed in the traditional manner for its period. The Georgian walnut chest of drawers is a single-piece chest, with delightful proportions. This is an ideal item for the bedroom or landing as it provides significant storage space for clothes.

The Georgian walnut chest of drawers boasts a lovely mellow walnut colour and displays stunning mirror-matched figured walnut detail on the drawer fronts. It has a fantastic colour having retained its original patination this can only be achieved through age and years of care and cleaning it has received.

This Georgian walnut chest of drawers would look superb in either a traditional or contemporary setting and would suit a variety of rooms from the hallway, to the living room or bedroom. It’s extremely useful as there are so much storage space. This early Georgian chest of drawers would certainly grace any home. So don't miss out your chance to own a lovely piece of furniture.
