The antique painted chest is a chest of drawers that is over 100 years old and has some form of paint finish. The most sought after are in the original paint finish with lots of charm and character from years of use, but you can also find good quality pieces that have been re painted and worn through using a form of chalk paint. If done correctly and worn through in the correct areas, you can find it quite difficult to tell the difference. The earlier Georgian chests are very popular with bracket feet and original brass handles but also the Victorian examples with rounded corners and turned handles can also look just as good. With all our painted pieces we try to keep them in as original condition as possible but when we re-paint hem we ensure they still have characterful features and finish them by beautifully cleaned using a traditional form of wax finishing by hand. Have a look at some examples we currently have for sale below along with some sold examples.
Below are a few examples of previously sold painted chests but if any particular style looks of interest please let us know as we do get many similar designs in stock and we can try to locate something similar.

Kathryn McDougall,
Thank you James, the chest of drawers delivered on many levels, one being true to photo and description, ( wouldn’t normally buy before I see the real thing), quick delivery by a very nice and considerate guy in a yellow van (we spotted him a mile away - literally). Also, the caring and professional way in which we are received when we contact you. I now need another chest of drawers similar to the first in order to finish the room - please contact me should anything suitable come your way. Many thanks.
