Walnut Bow Front Chest

Chest Description

This bow front chest of drawers is bench-made in England as a Georgian period reproduction. Like all of our English reproduction furniture, this bow front chest of drawers is crafted using only the finest in materials and techniques. In this particular bow front chest, the wood is distressed, finished and polished all by hand to produce an incredibly rich complexion and grain that are complemented quite beautifully by antiqued brass hardware. This bow front chest also comes with optional crossbanding, which complements the principle wood type to beautiful effect.
With a classic two-over-four drawer design, this bow front chest of drawers offers plenty of storage, while the top two drawers lock. Each drawer features hand-cut dovetailed drawer joints, indicating fine craftsmanship, and this high standard of quality is maintained from top to bottom, where lovely splayed feet provide strong support. The feet are quite thick and because of their somewhat arched design, they are much stronger than straight feet, a discovery Queen Anne craftsmen made when perfecting the similarly curvaceous cabriole leg in the early 18th century. The perfect combination of antique style beauty and English utility, this bow front chest of drawers would make a fine addition to any home furniture collection!
