Description

This stately five-drawer highboy chest is a showstopper straight out of a bygone era, featuring a dramatic serpentine or reverse-serpentine drawer front profile that gives it an almost Art Deco meets Neoclassical personality. Flanking reeded column pilasters with brass ring capitals add architectural gravitas, while the mixed brass hardware tells a story drawer by drawer: ornate round knobs up top, delicate leaf-shaped pulls on the second drawer, and generous bail-style half-moon pulls on the lower three. The interior drawer construction reveals solid secondary wood with clean, tight joinery, and the walnut veneer surfaces remain rich and lustrous with only the gentle patina of a well-loved life. Measuring approximately 44 inches tall, 36 inches wide, and 19 inches deep, this piece likely dates to the mid-20th century American furniture revival period and would command attention in any bedroom, hallway, or dressing room.
