An outstanding quality two short over three long English chest of drawers dating to the reign of George II, the Walnut veneer marquetry on Walnut frame, Oak lined with 'Running Dog' Parquetry work around each drawer surround in Holly veneer.

This beautiful chest of drawers has been professionally rejuvenated by our French Polisher, we have also had the missing secret 'Quaker locks' replaced on the two upper small drawers, these were a design feature on finely made country house furniture of the period to stop servants from being able to access the top drawers contents and can only be accessed by pulling the top long drawer out.

Crossbanded top, Teardrop handles and supported on raised shaped bracket feet, in truly superb condition, wear commensurate to age, each long drawer with original locks, key is not present.

Height 92.5 cm, Width 99.5 cm, Depth 55.5 cm

All our items are genuine antique/vintage pieces and therefore can have some signs of age-related use or wear, this adds to the character and uniqueness of each of them.

 We try to give accurate measurements wherever possible, however where items are unusual shapes, please trust our approx. dimensions to be as close as possible.
