The sides feature quaint yet elegant squares of string ebony inlay. A view at the back reveals the kind of sturdy paneling that went into the making of this incredible chest of drawers.      This gorgeous walnut marquetry chest of drawers was recently hand-crafted in England by a team of master craftsmen. The wood has been hand-distressed, hand-finished and hand-waxed to produce a rich, lustrous complexion and distinct grain. The distinct marquetry inlays, which follow a traditional inlay technique first developed during the Italian Renaissance and were introduced to England after 1660, are composed of oak, satinwood and walnut. The principle wood used in this piece is a lovely selection of burl walnut. Antiqued solid-brass escutcheons and swan neck style pulls contrast beautifully with the wood, while the simple, smooth edges and shaped bracket feet grant the piece an elegant simplicity that complements the intricate marquetry inlays.     In addition to being a fine example of contemporary English craftsmanship, this dresser also provides plenty of storage, featuring a classic two-over-three drawer design, with each of the drawers constructed with hand-cut dovetails. Every drawer also locks, thus providing convenient security if you choose to store valuables or other items. Whether you are looking for a decorative masterpiece or a functional chest of drawers to store your things, this piece will serve your needs for generations to come, so don't miss your chance to make it a part of your home today! -Attention- Buyer pays all shipping.
