Small Victorian Mahogany Chest of Drawers with Original Knob Handles

Small Victorian Mahogany Chest of Drawers with Original Knob Handles

A charming small Victorian mahogany chest of drawers, dating from the mid-19th century, offering excellent colour, attractive figuring and highly practical storage within a compact footprint.

The chest is constructed from well-figured mahogany with a rich, warm patina developed over time. It features two short drawers above three long graduated drawers, all retaining their original turned mahogany knob handles, which add to the piece’s authentic character.

A particularly clever design feature can be seen in the bottom drawer, which incorporates the plinth into its construction. This allows the chest to maintain the appearance of perfectly graduated drawers while cleverly utilising the plinth space to create a deeper and more practical bottom drawer, providing additional storage without altering the visual proportions of the piece.

With its balanced proportions, attractive grain, and useful size, this Victorian chest would be ideal for a bedroom, hallway, or guest room, bringing both practicality and classic antique charm.
