A richly figured 19th century American Empire chest of drawers, featuring dramatic tiger maple veneer, elegant scrolling front rail, and bold carved ball-and-claw front feet. The drawer fronts display extraordinary mirrored grain, a classic hallmark of early Empire craftsmanship. Each of the three full-size drawers includes its original wood knobs and period keyholes, and the chest retains a working key.
This piece shows authentic 19th-century character throughout, including veneer wear, small losses, repairs, and age-related surface marks (see photos). Solid, stately, and warm, it’s an exceptional example of early American furniture with deep presence and charm.
