An elegant Georgian chest of drawers, this has been recently refinished in black paint with a waxed finish which has been pared back at the edges to give a lovely aged appearance. It has a wonderful architectural look, with the top drawers extending above the others on side columns in the form of a building entablature. It will make a lovely storage piece for any room.
– 2 over 3 graduated size drawers.
– Original drawer handles with lion heads and rings.
– Cockbeaded drawer fronts.

In good condition showing wear consistent with age and use. There is a large knot hole in the back, which does not affect structural integrity or function. No key is available, but the locks are present. The slightly pared back paint and wax finish is recent, making it ready for the home.
