George III Mahogany Chest on Chest with Oak-Lined Drawers, Late 18th Century
DESCRIPTION
A handsome George III mahogany chest-on-chest dating from the last quarter of the eighteenth century. The upper section is surmounted by a moulded dentil cornice above two short and three long graduated drawers, flanked by reeded canted corners.

CONDITION
The chest is in good, solid condition and remains structurally sound. There is a key present that appears to be decorative only (does not work the locks). There are minor scratches, stains, knocks and other signs of age and use. There are some shrinkage splits, including to the left and right side panels, the front of the upper right-hand drawer, and the top drawer of the lower section. Some areas of veneer have been repaired during its lifetime, primarily one piece approximately 2cm long to the right hand side of the top section, and the brass handles are replacements. Overall, the chest presents well as an honest eighteenth-century piece with wear commensurate with its age and use.
