It's uncommon to be able to attribute antique furniture to specific makers, but this graceful chest of drawers was made … more It's uncommon to be able to attribute antique furniture to specific makers, but this graceful chest of drawers was made in Richmond, Virginia in the workshop of George Hendree. Crafted from gorgeous walnut with yellow pine secondary wood, the simply turned feet ending in a squat ball is a characteristic design of central Virginia furniture in the early 1800s.

While it is not signed, the back of the chest is heavily marked with numbers, x's, and notes like "Bottom" and "M. Rail." The drawer interiors also have similar construction notes. Additionally, the drawer blades are supported by rails that are dovetailed into the case in the front and back. These two features are indicative of work coming out of Hendree's shop. We have documentation of a signed George Hendree chest with similar markings and construction techniques. Hendree trained under renowned Norfolk cabinetmaker Chester Sully, acquiring the skills to create pieces with a high level of quality and construction visible in features such as the paneled back and narrow dovetails. Hendree moved from Norfolk to Richmond in 1813 and worked there until his death in 1834, so this chest was made within that time frame.

While the story of this chest adds to its value, you don't have to be a collector of furniture to enjoy the beauty in the simple, elegant lines of this chest. It is a wonderful piece that would fit seamlessly in any space. less
