19th C. Handcrafted English Mahogany and Burl Maple Small Wellington Chest Nightstand

Mahogany and burl maple small Wellington chest, England, c. 1890-1900.

Rare, handcrafted chest with beautiful contrasting wood grains featuring six dovetailed drawers with rosette knobs, set upon bracket feet. Top drawer has adjustable/removable wood dividers. The hinged side pilaster opens to access contents of drawers. It is designed to lock but the locking mechanism is not functional. Great for small utensils, tools or other everyday household items. Also nice as a unique side table or nightstand. It is in good condition with a warm, age-appropriate patina. This is a rather striking and unique piece, hard to come by in this size.
