An exceptionally well crafted late Victorian or Eastlake period tall chest of drawers with a swivel mirror dates from about 1875.
Solid walnut with burl panels, the satiny finish is in excellent condition with warm patina. The mirror has just enough "smoke" to show its age, it is mounted above two small jewelry drawers. All drawers have round or "pin and cove" dovetail joints, characteristic of the age.
Engraved brass hardware is of the period, but not original to the piece, for unknown reasons. Five lower drawers were latched with a "sidelock" mechanism - at the right side is a hinged column secured the drawers, but the lock is missing.
Dimensions of this marvelous American made furniture are 33 1/2" wide, 18" deep and 71 1/2" tall.
Item # G-H676
