About the Item

This George II style English yew wood chest centers on a spectacular top surface of book-matched oyster burl yew, masterfully framed by an intricate crossbanded border with alternating light and dark wood geometric inlays. The vibrant, golden-honey tones beautifully illuminate the natural swirls, concentric growth rings, and dense cluster knots unique to premium oyster burl veneer cuts. Built in a classic Georgian silhouette, the case holds three small frieze drawers directly above three graduated long drawers, each delicately framed with light wood stringing and mounted with cast-brass batwing pulls and matching central escutcheons. The drawer interiors showcase exceptional craftsmanship, constructed from solid oak with hand-cut dovetail joinery and elegantly dressed in a diamond-motif light blue silk fabric lining. Elevating the entire piece are substantial, burled ogee bracket feet that complement the molded base plinth, while the rear of the case retains its traditional rough-sawn, vertical backboards—showing a historic patination and deep oxidation that perfectly grounds this timeless antique design.
