Early 19th Century American Walnut Empire Chest of Drawers
The chest retains the kind of honest character collectors and designers search for — natural age cracks to the top from wood movement over time, irregularities consistent with hand craftsmanship, and a wonderfully untouched warmth that only centuries of age can create. The oversized scale and substantial weight further speak to the quality of its construction.
A timeless piece that works beautifully in Primitive, Federal, Empire, English Country, Old Florida, or European-inspired interiors.
