About the Item
An English George III-period walnut and mahogany caddy-top bachelor’s chest. Mid-eighteenth century, ca 1760.
This is a superb quality bachelor chest with slide, in a rare combination of well-figured walnut and mahogany of deep, rich colour.
Containing four graduated cockbeaded working drawers, unusually faced with veneers, rather than in the usual solid.
Of fine colour, patina and excellent proportions. Raised on the original bracket feet and retaining its original brass swan-neck handles. In excellent condition throughout. Sophisticated, very useful and smart.
A chic antique.
W 36” (95 cm)
