antique mahogany chest of drawers

Beautiful sleek antique chest of drawers made for the British government. These chests of drawers were taken as personal belongings of high-ranking officers, beautifully colored. The brass fittings on the drawers are neatly concealed so that during transport there were no protruding parts on these pieces of furniture, otherwise, the risk of damage would have been very high. So besides having a practical use, it is also aesthetically very beautiful.
