Executed in a rich, dark walnut finish, this piece features a thoughtfully tiered façade with a combination of drawers and concealed cabinet storage. The upper section offers a long top drawer above two smaller drawers and a wide lower drawer, all constructed with quality dovetail joinery. Below, a pair of paneled cabinet doors open to reveal divided interior storage.

The cabinet is constructed in three separate sections—a drawer case, cabinet base, and plinth—allowing for easier transport and installation without compromising structural integrity or design. Once assembled, the piece presents as a seamless, unified form.

Distinctive solid brass hardware—including sculptural pulls, exposed hinges, and an elegant central latch—adds warmth and contrast against the deep wood tones. The clean lines, stepped molding, and slightly elevated stance reflect Taylor’s influence in blending modernism with classical Asian forms.

Versatile in use, this piece works beautifully as a gentleman’s chest, bar cabinet, server, or statement storage piece in a living or dining space.

A sophisticated and increasingly sought-after design from Baker’s Michael Taylor Collection
