Vintage Mid Century Meredew Chest of Four Drawers in Oak

About the Item

Stylishly simple chest of four drawers by Meredew from the early 1960s. Beautiful blonde oak finish which is smooth to touch with a characterful grain. Good size drawer depth and the iconic concave protruding round handles which give balance to the otherwise utilitarian straight lines. This item is nice and clean inside and out. Solid and sturdy and has been sanded and refinished with 3 coats of a hard wax oil. Drawers run smoothly.

  • Painted Oak Chest of Four Drawers
    Located in Baltimore, MD
    What an extraordinary chest of drawers! The top is plain with a bullnose edge and the sides are nicely paneled. The front corners of the case are boldly reeded and toward the top a sprig of lily of the valley is delicately carved inside the reed. Above this is a massive scrolled acanthus leaf corbel, appearing to support the top. The drawers are more or less equal in depth with faux panels created by an applied mitered molding with a bead running round the inside. The knobs are rare; hardly ever seen They are the classic shape of the ceramic knobs found on much Central European vernacular furniture, except these are carved in wood. The gourd-like feet have similar contours. The oak was finished in dark tones and then was painted over in buttermilk. At some time it was painted white and has worn or been rubbed through to the earlier layers. The result is a delightful piece that need not be confined to the bedroom, but rather can be enjoyed wherever some whimsical storage...
