Description:
This beautiful antique mahogany chest of drawers was hand-crafted from solid wood in Victorian England around 1890. Since then, the flame mahogany has developed a lustrous patina that has come to enrich the wood's wispy grain and deep, warm complexion. Complementing the mahogany are beautiful mother-of-pearl inlays set into each knob, a distinct and uncommon feature, even in the world of antiques. Turned legs look wonderful and provide sturdy support to the piece, so there is no need to worry about stability. Canted corners grant the piece an appealing elegance, while a classic two-over-three drawer design provides a generous amount of storage space. Each drawer features hand-cut dovetailed drawer joints, which indicates fine craftsmanship and sturdy construction. The lower three drawers feature strong supports that run through the middle of them so the drawers hold an impressive amount of weight. This piece has endured some wear consistent with age, particularly on the feet where there are a few old marks, but condition remains excellent. This gorgeous Victorian dresser will continue to grow more beautiful and function wonderfully for generations to come, so don't miss this chance to make it a part of your home today!
