A Very Attractive Early 18th Century Queen Anne Period Walnut Chest, Having Well Figured Quarter Veneered Top With Crossbanded Decoration, Over Two Short And Three Long Drawers With Replacement Brasswear, Flanked By Attractive Crossbanded Ends, Raised On Replacement Turned Bun Feet.

This item of furniture which is over 300 years old so its remarkable to say that it is as fit for purpose as the day it was made. It has also remained in remarkably good condition for something that would no doubt have borne heavy usage over the majority of its life.

There is attractive banded decoration to the top, along with further banding to the sides. The handles are old replacements, but very much in the style which the originals would have been and sit really nicely on the chest. The feet are also all replaced, but this is extremely common for items of this age. The replacements are totally in keeping with what the chest would originally have had and therefore look perfectly appropriate on the piece.

Certainly this chest of drawers is both beautiful and functional and would suit a whole variety of spaces around the home in which it may be required.

As with all items which we offer for sale it has been inspected by our highly skilled antique furniture restorers and received a natural wax polish in the traditional manner before being offered for sale.
