Antique Small George III Mahogany Bow Front Chest of Drawers

Antique Small George III Mahogany Bow Front Chest of Drawers
£495.00 £545.00

This antique small George III mahogany bow front chest of drawers is a lovely, practical piece with a warm colour, elegant shape and plenty of period character. Dating from the late 18th to early 19th century, it has a classic 2 over 3 drawer layout, a bow front form, attractive mahogany grain and crossbanding to the top.

Its smaller size makes it especially useful for homes where space matters. It would sit beautifully in a bedroom, hallway, landing, sitting room or guest room, offering the charm of antique furniture without feeling too large or heavy. The warm mahogany tone also makes it easy to place within country interiors, cottage interiors and traditional farmhouse interiors.

The five drawers offer very useful storage for clothing, linens, accessories, paperwork or everyday household pieces. The bow front shape gives the chest a softer and more elegant look than a straight-fronted chest, while the brass drop handles add attractive traditional detail. The drawers run smoothly, making this a practical antique mahogany chest of drawers that is ready to be used and enjoyed, not just admired.

Restored and ready to use, with minor signs of age and wear in keeping with its age. The brass handles have been added later, which has been reflected honestly in the description. Overall, this is a very appealing small antique chest of drawers with great colour, useful proportions and plenty of Georgian character.
