CHIPPENDALE PERIOD GEORGIAN MAHOGANY ANTIQUE CHEST ON CHEST
DESCRIPTION
An exceptional example of a superb quality English Georgian, Chippendale period antique chest on chest with beautiful quilted figured mahogany to the graduating drawer fronts. Each drawer is adorned with its original Rococo style brass gilt swan neck handles and key escutcheons and they are finished with cock bead moulded edge.
The cornice is of Greek key design and the canted corners to the top section have blind fretwork decoration with double lambs tongue moulding to the lower section terminating to original ogee shaped bracket feet.
All the drawers are oak lined and retain their original locks and come with a working key. The chest on chest or tallboy retains its lovely colour and original finish which has been cleaned and waxed.
The chest comes in two sections which makes it easy to move and place in a room. The lower height of this piece of furniture means it can be accommodated in most homes.
