Mid 20th Century Hand-Embossed White Metal-Clad Two-Drawer Chest

Chairish

$3,120

This is an exceptional hand-crafted two-drawer chest completely clad in intricately repoussé-worked white metal, showcasing an all-over pattern of finely engraved scrolling vines, stylized flowers, and foliate motifs. The top is divided into four decorative panels, each richly chased with dense floral ornament and bordered by a repeating scalloped edge. The case features two generously sized drawers framed by engraved panel borders and fitted with faceted crystal knobs that provide a striking contrast to the shimmering metallic surface. Matching repoussé decoration continues uninterrupted across the sides and tapered square legs, demonstrating the meticulous craftsmanship and attention to detail throughout. Influenced by traditional Moorish and Indian metalwork, the chest combines practical storage with dramatic decorative appeal. Its luminous silvered finish and richly textured surface make it an elegant statement piece suitable as a bedside chest, accent cabinet, or occasional piece in both traditional and contemporary interiors.
