More About This Item
This Baker Milling Road drawer chest combines purposeful storage with timeless design, making it a standout in transitional and traditional interiors alike. Baker’s Milling Road collection is known for delivering quality construction and thoughtful proportions, and this chest exemplifies that reputation: clean lines, gracefully scaled drawers, and detailing that feels both collected and purposeful.

With multiple deep drawers, it offers functional storage for linens, wardrobe essentials, or even media components, while the tall, elegant silhouette adds architectural interest without taking up unnecessary floor space. With pewter tone hardware, the five drawer chest has a row of three drawers over two additional stacked drawers. Suited for a primary bedroom, guest room, entry hall, or even as accent storage in a living space, the front is bowed with a pillar on each side of the middle drawer.

The manufacture's label is in the first drawer. This piece was acquired from the estate of the late Indianapolis Colts owner, Jim Irsay.
