Description

A fine mid-18th-century George II mahogany tallboy of excellent colour and proportion, retaining its original gilt brass handles throughout. The upper section fitted with two short drawers over three long graduated drawers, above a base section of three further long drawers.

The case is flanked by reeded quarter columns with gilt brass capitals and bases, and finished with a well-moulded cornice. The piece is raised on shaped ogee bracket feet, typical of the period.

The mahogany displays a rich, warm patina with attractive grain, particularly to the drawer fronts. Drawer linings are oak, with traditional dovetail construction evident. Overall, a well-preserved and elegant example of Georgian domestic furniture.
