Description:
This a fine quality antique English Regency carved mahogany bow front chest of drawers, circa 1820, in excellent condition. Comprising a mahogany bow front frame, with a simple top, above a bank of four graduated drawers. The drawers are profusely carved, featuring harebell garlands, tied with ribbon bows, with a central urn, as well as geometric Gregorian key scribe moulding and cock-beading to the perimeter. The drawers are decorated with old replacement brass ring handles on conspicuous lion’s head escutcheons. The drawers are lined in solid elm and constructed with hand-dovetailed joints. The drawer interior has been painted in a deep blue colour (Juniper Ash, by The Little Greene Paint Company). The drawers retain the original working brass lever locks, with working key. The chest is raised on a reeded plinth, supported by its original scribe ebonised moulded bracket feet.
The design and carvings seen on this chest are taken from the classical beauty and finesse of Egyptian, Roman and Greek classical architecture. This can be seen in the form of refined carving and clean lines.
The chest displays a rich dark red-brown mahogany colour. The chest has been cleaned and French polished by hand in our workshop to a professional standard. It has also benefitted from the years of care and cleaning it has received.
This item would look superb in a variety of rooms, from the landing to the bedroom. This campaign chest would certainly grace any home. So don’t miss out your chance to own a lovely piece of furniture.

To protect our Customers from disappointment or the unexpected, we strongly encourage them to closely inspect item photos, descriptions, and details before purchasing anything on the Site, and then again upon delivery or pickup.
If the Customer is unsure about an item's condition, dimensions, quantity, or description, they can send their questions to the item’s Vendor by clicking on Ask the seller on the listing page of the Site.
Customers shall receive the same level of consumer protection on purchases irrespective of whether they are buying from a Professional Vendor or Non-Professional Vendor.
Should you have any questions regarding your transaction, please contact the Vendor in the first instance.

The right to cancel does not apply to the following types of Goods, which are non-refundable: items that are personalised, bespoke or made-to-order to the customer’s specific requirements. If in doubt, the Customer can contact the Vendor via the Site.
If the Customer cancels an order after an item has already been marked as dispatched for delivery, the costs of delivery are non-refundable.

To initiate a return, the Customer must click on Create a return on the order page on the Site. In the return request, the reason for the return must be included along with photos of any damage of the Goods, if faulty.
As with cancellations, the right to return an item does not apply to the following types of Goods, which are non-refundable: items that are personalised, bespoke or made-to-order to the Customer’s specific requirements.

In case of a return, the costs of delivery (i.e., outbound delivery costs when Goods are sent from the Vendor to a Customer) are non-refundable.
The Customer is responsible for organising the return of Goods and for paying delivery costs. Once the item is returned to the Vendor in the same condition, the Vendor will confirm receipt and refund the Customer. If an item is returned to the seller damaged, or in an unsuitable condition, Vinterior will not be able to process the refund and the seller may have to send it back to you (and ask you to cover the delivery costs). All items are inspected on return.

Once the claim is resolved and any relevant decision regarding the insurance has been made, any applicable refunds will be processed.
Please note that vintage items are not sold as new and are likely to show signs of wear and tear. This is not sufficient grounds for a refund.
