18th Century English Walnut Chest on Chest

A Mid 18th Century English Walnut Tallboy or Chest on Chest of Glowing Colour. This double chest of drawers, or tallboy, is veneered in walnut. It stands beautifully on original shaped bracket feet. It has a lovely low waist, which enhances the proportions quite dramatically, and the shaped cornice and chamfered and fluted columns to the corners are signs of a very good maker. It has a configuration of nine drawers all of which are featherbanded and crossbanded, it also has fully veneered sides. A great piece of George II walnut furniture, made around 1750. Most striking is the outstanding colour and patination.
