Description
Here comes the tall drink of water your bedroom has been waiting for -- a Bassett Furniture Industries highboy chest from their Silvermist line, model BFI 9-10, finished in a gorgeous bleached cerused oak that gives the grain serious character and drama. The two-piece stacked design features six drawers total: two smaller upper drawers adorned with distinctive arrow-shaped brass pulls, and four generous lower drawers fitted with elegant fleur-de-lis style brass bail handles that scream mid-century sophistication. Construction quality is evident throughout, with dovetail joinery on the drawer boxes and solid secondary woods inside -- this thing was built to last decades, and it has. Condition is consistent with its vintage age: the finish shows surface scratches, a residue ring on the top of the upper section, some edge chips, and minor finish loss at a few corners, all honestly documented and photographed -- but nothing a little love or a creative refinish could not cure.
