Drawer Chests

Chests of Drawers: Frequently Asked Questions

​What different types and styles of drawer chests do you offer?

​Our premium collection features a diverse range of configurations and silhouettes designed to bring effortless organization and elegance to your bedroom. We offer:

• ​Tallboys & Slim Chests: Featuring a narrow, vertically stacked 5 or 6-drawer layout, these are perfect for maximizing storage in compact spaces or awkward alcoves.
• ​Wide Chests & Dressers: Classic 3-drawer or 6-drawer double chest configurations that offer vast storage capacity and a generous top surface for displaying luxury mirrors, perfumes, or art.
• ​Artisanal Statement Chests: Designs featuring unique textures like hand-woven rattan inlay, fluted wood detailing, intricately carved solid timber frontage, and elegant brass handles.

What premium materials are used in your chests of drawers?

​We prioritize durable, high-quality, and sustainably sourced natural materials that age beautifully over time. The majority of our luxury drawer chests are handcrafted from 100% solid hardwoods, including rich oak, characterful mango wood, warm chestnut, and deep walnut. Many lines feature heavy-duty ironmongery, soft-close drawer runners, and reinforced dovetail joints for superior structural integrity.

​How do I choose the right size chest of drawers for my bedroom layout?

​To select the perfect piece for your space, we recommend keeping these two practical factors in mind:

1. ​Footprint vs. Wall Space: If floor space is tight, a vertically oriented tallboy uses minimal floor area while offering excellent storage. If you have an empty wall, a wide 6-drawer chest can act as a striking design anchor.
2. ​Drawer Clearance: Ensure you measure the distance from the front of the chest to your bed frame or other furniture. You will need at least 50cm to 60cm of clear space in front of the unit to fully extend the drawers and stand comfortably in front of them.

Do your chests of drawers arrive fully assembled?

​To guarantee safe transit and protect the expert craftsmanship of the units, delivery formats vary by design:

• ​Solid Wood Chests & Tallboys: The vast majority of our luxury dressers and chests arrive fully built by master craftsmen with only the handles requiring minor attachment (often inverted inside the drawers for safety during transport).
• ​Modular Styles: Some specific collections may require minor assembly to attach the supporting base frame or legs.

​Please check the individual product specifications for exact assembly details, or upgrade to our white-glove service to let our team handle it for you.

​Are your drawer chests fitted with anti-tip safety mechanisms?

​Yes, safety is paramount. Because premium solid wood chests of drawers feature substantial weight—especially when drawers are fully loaded—we highly recommend anchoring them securely. Most of our taller chests and tallboys come supplied with discreet anti-tip wall tether kits. We strongly advise utilizing these fixings to secure the unit to your bedroom wall, particularly in homes with children or pets.
