About the Item
George II Mahogany Bachelor’s Chest of Drawers with Brushing Slide, Circa 1750
A George II period mahogany bachelor’s chest of drawers of compact and well-balanced proportions, dating from the mid-18th century. This practical and appealing form features a pull-out brushing slide inset with a green leather skiver decorated with a tooled border, above four graduated drawers, making it well suited to use in a bedroom, study or dressing room.
Constructed predominantly in mahogany, the chest retains a pleasing Georgian outline and stands on shaped bracket feet beneath a moulded base. The drawers are oak-lined, with bases running front to back, consistent with 18th-century cabinetmaking practice, and the overall proportions give the piece a grounded, purposeful presence.
The top displays a naturally aged surface with good colour, and the chest as a whole has the quiet character and usability expected of a genuine mid-18th-century piece. Its modest scale makes it particularly suitable for modern interiors where original Georgian furniture of manageable proportions is increasingly sought after.
A full set of additional images is available on request.
Dimensions (approximate):
Height: 84 cm (33 in)
Width: 96.5 cm (38 in)
Depth: 51.75 cm (20 3/8in)
Condition:
Good antique condition, commensurate with age. The chest is structurally sound and sturdy. There are historic repairs and areas of restoration consistent with an 18th-century piece that has seen long use, including filled shrinkage splits to the sides, which are visible and shown in the accompanying photographs. There are minor marks, blemishes and surface wear consistent with age and use.
The chest has been lightly cleaned and waxed in our workshop and is ready for immediate use. As with all genuine antique furniture, signs of age, wear and variation in colour should be expected and form part of its character.
