Late 19th Century Solid Wood Five-Drawer Dresser

Midnight Blue™ & Old Chapel Satin Walnut™ Designer Edition

Description

A remarkable example of late nineteenth-century American craftsmanship, this solid wood five-drawer dresser has been thoughtfully restored and reimagined into a sophisticated designer statement while preserving the integrity of its original construction.

Crafted entirely of solid hardwood, the dresser showcases exceptional natural cathedral wood grain across the expansive top and all five drawer fronts. Each wood surface has been professionally refinished in our signature Old Chapel Satin Walnut™, revealing the warmth, depth, and character that only genuine antique lumber can provide.

The architectural frame has been refinished in a luxurious Midnight Blue™, creating a dramatic contrast against the walnut grain. Hand-applied gold gilding highlights the original fluted corner pilasters and architectural details, producing a refined appearance that blends historic craftsmanship with contemporary luxury.

The original brass batwing drawer pulls have been professionally restored and refinished in a warm antique gold finish while preserving the dresser’s authentic late nineteenth-century character. Original keyhole escutcheons and lock mechanisms remain in place, maintaining the historical integrity of the piece.

One of the dresser’s defining architectural features is its original stepped construction. The upper drawer projects approximately one inch beyond the lower drawer stack, creating visual depth and a distinctive handcrafted profile rarely found in modern furniture.

Inside, each of the five drawers features traditional dovetail joinery and operates smoothly on its original solid wood drawer runners. The result is furniture that retains the satisfying feel and durability of authentic antique craftsmanship while offering reliable everyday functionality.

The Midnight Blue™ finish introduces an elegant Art Deco-inspired influence without altering the dresser’s original Arts & Crafts architecture. The result is a timeless statement piece equally suited for traditional residences, luxury lofts, boutique hotels, executive offices, or sophisticated Hollywood Regency interiors.
