SOLD Period Beidermeier Flame Mahogany Seven Drawer Chest REDUCED PRICE!

We are pleased to be offering today this gorgeous seven drawer period Beidermeier flame mahogany dresser that comes with seven drawers to depicted the seven days of the week.  Legend goes that this was designed a long time ago (you can find them nowadays coming out of Germany, Belgium and Denmark).  This particular dresser represented the workers seven days of the week and he had the respective clothes with Sunday being the most special day, so it held the most clothes.  They were never made with handles and the drawers are opened with the use of a key.  Some people argue that the white escutcheon it is a plastic composite and other say it is celluloid.  I just say it is very nice to keep it original.  This particular chest dates from the 1850s era and is in wonderful condition.  It comes with  a large original key and all the locks appear to lock, but we never guarantee our locks to work as they always have to be peeled apart, oiled and maintained as they are very fussy.  The chest itself is breathtaking.  Look at the selection of the flame mahogany that adorns the face of the hand cut dove tail drawers!  The simplicity of no handles is a very stylish move.  It has a clamshell molded top and ends with a bun foot that shows signs of the old European wood borers that used to burrow into the wood and they are all gone, but does show signs.  It is all good and bug free!  The only thing I can see wrong with it is that there was a little chip on the right hand side that the warehouse has professionally repaired and I can’t even see it in the photos.  It is all original with even the original chamfered back.  It comes apart on top to the second drawer of the base if you want to make it a little shorter for shipping.  It is 40 inches wide, 18 inches deep and 63 inches tall.  It offers tons of storage in a very stylish and classic cabinet frame.
