An 18th century mahogany commode chest of drawers, probably Dutch, with serpentine front, four frieze drawers with brass drop handles, shaped backplates and lock escutcheons and with cockbeading to each drawer front, flanked by fluted rounded columns and raised on shaped bracket feet. Width 120 cm (see illustration). CONDITION REPORT: The handles and lock escutcheons are later replacements. The backplates of each handle cover the original handle holes. This looks to be the second set of handles that the piece has had. The lock escutcheons are clearly a similar age to the handles. The top of the piece is in reasonable condition. There is a stress fracture between the two planks that make up the top. There is a small repair to the rear right hand return moulding at the back. The rear of the top has been reattached at left and right and there are old filled holes to the right and left hand side as you will be able to see. The sides of the piece are in generally good order with only minor stress fractures to the timber. The bracket feet are original and in good condition. There is a break to the front right hand foot at the base. We have the detached piece. The backboards are original. There are some very minor traces of old long gone woodworm to the softwood carcass but these are minimal, long gone and in our opinion insignificant. The piece is structurally sound. The veneers are generally in good order.

The table top is held in place by a modern L shaped bracket to one side. There are also some replacement blocks to the underside of the top.
