19th Century Pine Chest of Drawers

An attractive item of useful storage, this chest is relatively low and has two small over two long drawers of graduated depth. A rustic narrow red line has been painted around the drawer fronts and the top, highlighting the edges and giving the piece a decorative element. Originally designed to provide a backsplash for a washstand, the shaped piece at the back now serves to prevent items from falling down the back of the chest. It has a nice depth of colour and will look well in any home, providing practical storage without overwhelming a room with its height. Dating to circa 1870, this is made of pine and originates from the UK.
