Fantastic mahogany chest of drawers with concaved front and glass top by Scottish furniture maker Whytock & Reid. An arrangement of 2 short drawers and 2 long drawers with oval embossed handles. All drawers run smoothly, are constructed with hand dovetail joints and decorated with delicate string inlay. A solid set with incredible colouring and amazing graining with only minor marks / scuffs in line with age and use. This is a striking example of period furniture offering a lot of storage space and history to any home.

Established in 1807 by Edinburgh businessman Richard Whytock, the furniture-making firm became ‘Whytock and Reid’ when he formed a partnership with John Reid in 1876.
Whytock earned his first warrant from Queen Victoria in 1838 and the recognition of their craftsmanship.
