English Bachelor Chests and Chests of Drawers

George I period walnut bachelor chest of drawers.

Herring-bone or feather inlay in the drawers gives a cross banded effect. Size approx. 2′ 3″ wide by 2′ 8″ high by 11 0″ deep. Drawers oak lined.
Note the very fine selection of walnut figure shown in this example.
Price Range: $1,000-$1,500 Value points: See section notes

An early mahogany bachelor’s chest; the design following quite plainly the earlier walnut type. The folding top is simple and solid, without an edge moulding.
