With graceful French bracket feet, beautifully figured mahogany, and subtle inlay along the base and around the keyholes, this chest of drawers shows the appeal of the "Neat & Plain" design aesthetic popular in the South during early 1800s. This design principle along with the yellow pine secondary wood confirm it is a Southern piece.
At just 38 inches wide and 17.75 inches deep, it is also relatively petite for this time period, making it a versatile piece that could serve many uses. The wide octagonal brass handles with half octagonal pulls are a unique, appealing feature and are original to the piece. We hope it finds a home where its charm and character are appreciated!

The most notable condition issue is that the skirt is missing on the bottom left side. The right side skirt remains, so it could be used as a template if you wanted to make a replacement for the left. There is some patching to the drawer face of the third drawer. It is noticeable up close, but it blends in to the figuring of the mahogany wood grain from afar. Finally, while the brasses are original, we replaced the pulls on the bottom drawer because they were missing when we purchased the piece. They are not an exact match but are similar in color and improve the function of the piece. less
