Vermont Shaker-Style Solid Cherry 6-Drawer Highboy Chest with Tiger Maple Accent
Annihilate the landfill, store a wardrobe in furniture that'll outlast your grandchildren
This is the kind of piece Vermont craftspeople have been getting right for decades — a six-drawer highboy in solid cherry with those gorgeous tiger maple inlay strips running down the case sides. The cherry has developed that warm, honeyed patina you only get from years of natural aging. Drawers glide smoothly on wood runners, and the turned cherry knobs are original. Classic Shaker-influenced proportions with tapered legs. This piece came from a Cambridge home where it was clearly well-loved — clean, tight joinery, no wobble, ready for another fifty years of daily use.
The D'Beetle Difference
• Solid Cherry Throughout, No Veneer: Case, drawer fronts, and top are all solid American cherry showing beautiful natural grain variation. Even the drawer knobs are turned from matching cherry stock.
• Tiger Maple Decorative Inlays: Figured tiger maple strips run vertically along the front case edges, adding visual depth and showcasing traditional New England cabinetmaking flair.
• Generous Storage, Modest Footprint: Six full-width drawers in a tall, narrow profile — approximately 36"W x 20"D x 54"H. Perfect for Cambridge bedrooms where floor space is precious but storage demands are real.
