A Mid-Century Modern Two-Tone Chest of Four Drawers
Description
A mid-century chest of four full-width drawers, likely dating from the 1960s or 1970s. The piece features a distinctive two-tone design with a light-toned wooden carcass, possibly finished in an oak-style veneer, contrasting with dark mahogany-style stained drawer fronts. The top and side panels exhibit a prominent vertical wood grain. Each drawer is fitted with two ornate, brass-toned metal drop handles featuring decorative foliate-style backplates. The chest is of a simple rectilinear form with a slightly recessed plinth base. No manufacturer’s marks or labels are visible, although a contemporary auction house identification label is adhered to the front left edge.
