Description:
Here are an attractive pair of Georgian style mahogany inlaid chest of drawers, circa 1950, in good original condition. The style of these chests emulates that seen during the George III period. The chests are designed with two small drawers at the top, above three larger drawers below. The chests benefit from lovely mahogany veneers to the tops and drawer fronts. The tops of the chests are decorated with cross banding and satinwood string inlay. Equally, the drawer fronts boast further cross banding, finished with cock-beaded edges and Georgian style metal swan neck handles and floral escutcheons. Further detail can be seen with the pretty chamfered edges to the fronts of the chests. The chests are raised on Georgian style bracket feet and boast a shaped frieze.
This pair of chests would look great in a variety of rooms from the living as lamp tables, or the bedroom, as bedsides. They are an extremely useful pair of chests to have in the house.
The chests feature a rich red mahogany colour. As they boast the original polish,they have a fantastic colour and patination; this can only be achieved through age and years of care and cleaning it has received.
