{"title":"Antique Chests of Drawers","description":"\u003cp\u003eAntique chests of drawers remain one of the most enduring and useful forms of British furniture, valued for both their everyday practicality and their beauty. Our collection of antique chests of drawers often includes pieces from the Georgian period through to the early 20th century, with a focus on well-proportioned, functional pieces that combine efficient storage with refined aesthetics. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWithin this collection you will find a rotating selection of straight-front, bow-front and serpentine chests, alongside the occasional Scotch chest and chest on chest. Examples range from compact bedroom pieces to more architectural forms suited to hallways, dressing rooms or reception rooms, crafted in mahogany, walnut and other traditional timbers chosen for their figure and durability.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery piece is chosen for its build quality, design integrity and character, and you can normally find options for master bedrooms, guest rooms or hallway storage. We favour original examples with good colour and honest wear. All of them are ready to be put to use, and all include delivery across most of the UK.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"antique-george-iii-mahogany-chest-of-drawers-c-1790","title":"Antique George III Mahogany Chest of Drawers c.1790","description":"\u003cp\u003eA George III mahogany chest of drawers, the solid mahogany top with moulded edge above four long graduated drawers retaining a warm, even colour and fitted with brass swan-neck handles, all raised on original ogee bracket feet. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA practical, understated chest with a classic Georgian silhouette and a conveniently modest footprint.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVery good antique condition with light surface wear consistent with age, later brass handles, original backboards historically reinforced for stability and an old, well-settled grain-line repair to one drawer front.
