Description: Rare Renaissance Revival walnut Victorian lockside chest
attributed to George Henkels, Philadelphia. It has a lovely original
"bubble gum" marble on the top with curved corners. There are six drawers
with all burled fronts with a raised shaped border and inset middle. The
drawers feature the carved lion mustache pulls that are a trademark of
Henkels. The third drawer down has a divider and the drawer bottoms are all
made of walnut - a feature often found in Philadelphia furniture. It
has a rounded burled bar on the right side of the case that swings open. We
have an old brass key for aesthetics but the lock no longer works. This is
a great quality Victorian lockside chest by one of the best known
Philadelphia makers!
