Van Koert began his career as a jewelry designer which is evidenced in the beautifully contoured pulls. The bars on the drawers look like platinum bracelets and the tear drop pulls could easily be imagined as earrings. Great attention was paid in the details here, all vantages hold a surprise for the eye. This dresser is a masterpiece of design with every aspect considered. The bottom span between the legs is a gentle wave, mimicking the handle silhouette.

The K12 “Man’s Chest” is commonly known as a gentlemen’s chest. This high boy is like a closet before the advent of the walk-in. Open the draw-door to reveal a stylish compartment with white sliding trays and drawers. The white trays are ideal for folded shirts. The lower drawer also has a solid wood jewelry tray.
