Victorian Mahogany Chest-on-Chest with Original Turned Knobs, 12 Drawers
Annihilate the landfill, adopt a century of storage that actually works
This is the real deal — a Victorian-era mahogany chest-on-chest that's been quietly holding someone's life together for 150+ years. Solid mahogany front with what appears to be pine secondary wood, hand-turned wooden knobs throughout, and those telltale keyhole escutcheons on every drawer. The two-piece design means you can actually get it up your Cambridge triple-decker stairs. Honest wear: surface scratches, some finish loss on lower section, and that beautiful patina that says 'I've lived.' All drawers functional.
The D'Beetle Difference • Twelve Drawers, Zero Excuses: Upper section features 6 smaller drawers; lower section has 2 half-width over 4 full-width drawers. That's serious storage for sweaters, linens, or your ever-growing collection of everything.
• Hand-Turned Original Hardware: All wooden knobs appear original — that distinctive Victorian mushroom profile with incised rings. No replacement brass, no IKEA nonsense. Keys not present but locks intact.
• Two-Piece Construction: Separates at the waist for moving. Lower section approximately 42"W x 48"H; upper section roughly 30"W x 24"H. Fits where modern furniture fears to tread.
