Know before you buy
The solid oak has been professionally bleached, resulting in a lighter, matte finish that highlights the natural grain while providing a clean, contemporary aesthetic.
Yes, the chest includes three original matching keys that operate the locks on each of the three drawers, allowing you to secure your belongings.
The brass handles feature a natural, aged patina that adds to the piece's character. We recommend dusting them gently with a soft, dry cloth and avoiding harsh metal polishes to preserve their authentic finish.
While the piece is structurally sound, it includes an anti-tip kit for added safety. We strongly recommend installing this kit to ensure the dresser remains secure, especially in households with children or pets.
This piece features three full-width drawers, offering generous storage capacity for clothing or linens. The drawers are deep enough to accommodate standard folded items comfortably.
