Description

This Victorian tall chest of drawers in burr walnut, circa 1880, is a piece of real quality, often known as a seminere chest on account of its seven graduating drawers. The shaped walnut top and matching sides provide a delightful contrast to the lighter burr drawer fronts, each cross banded with an ebonised border and fitted with an ornate escutcheon opening on the key. With original working locks, ebonised canted corners and turned front legs, it shows only expected surface marks and minor veneer wear in line with age, retaining great colour and patina and ready for everyday use in the home.
