Antique William IV Mahogany Chest of 5 Drawers

A lovely period compact chest of drawers. 

We are delighted to bring to you the finest example of a rare Georgian, William IV period (circa 1830) 5 deep descending drawer chest of drawers in fine quality Mahogany which is completely original and ideal for any period property. This stunning chest of drawers unusually features its original half bobbin turned applied details which finishes to acorns on the top moulding and simple bobbin turned details above the legs. This chest is in a lovely condition featuring its original French polished finish with its lovely original deep Mahogany colour. The front of this chest features cross-banded Mahogany which surrounds the drawers and cock-beaded edges (none of which is missing) which frames the stunning fiddle back Mahogany drawer fronts.

The finely dovetailed drawers are in good condition, the drawers are smoothly operating and are very clean inside, complete showing much of its original blue paper lining. The drawers bares a set of Regency oval Brass dropper plate handles (these have been replaced at some point) and stands on its beautifully turned Mahogany front legs to simple straight back legs. 

The chest has been restored in our workshop so is solid with no loose joints or wobbles and is free from woodworm. The drawers have had some of the drawer runners replaced and rebuilt as necessary so now have little to no wear and do not drop when opened. The chest of drawers has been carefully cleaned and waxed, maintaining its original patina whilst giving a lovely natural sheen. This lovely restored chest of drawers is ready for a new home and good for many more years to come.

Please note; This item is in fantastic condition for its age as shown by the photographs below. Being an antique item there are obviously marks, scratches, dents and some old repairs here and there as expected with anything of this age, However, we feel that these points are which adds to its charm and character to a piece.
