Appiation Brown Chest

This chest features four interlocking drawers designed for structural integrity and efficient organization. When evaluating a quality chest, look for the stability of the drawer boxes and the feel of the glide. The interlocking design ensures the drawers remain properly aligned even with frequent use, while the metal knob hardware provides a durable, tactile point of contact for daily operation.

Yes, this chest is an excellent choice for maximizing storage in rooms with a limited footprint. Standing at nearly 39 inches tall but only 33 inches wide, it utilizes vertical space effectively, providing four drawers of storage for clothes and linens without overwhelming the floor area. The mid-century modern design with turned bobbin legs also creates an "open" look, which helps a smaller bedroom feel less crowded.

To preserve the natural wood grain and rich brown finish of this piece, we recommend dusting regularly with a soft, lint-free cloth. Based on our furniture care expertise, you should avoid harsh chemical cleaners or silicone-based polishes that can build up over time. For minor spots, a slightly damp cloth with mild soap and water is sufficient, provided you dry the surface immediately with a soft towel to prevent moisture damage.

Customer assembly is required for this specific piece. While many of our full-service delivery items come pre-assembled, this chest is designed to be assembled at home. This is particularly advantageous for residents in urban apartments or homes with narrow staircases and tight hallways, as it allows the components to be easily moved into the desired room before final setup.

This chest is crafted from sturdy wood, a material known for its longevity. In humid climates, natural wood can sometimes expand. To ensure the interlocking drawers continue to slide smoothly, we recommend placing the chest in a climate-controlled environment and leaving a small gap between the furniture and the wall to allow for proper airflow. The protective finish is designed to help the wood resist environmental changes, ensuring the piece maintains its "vintage artistry" for years to come.

Safety is paramount for vertical storage pieces. We strongly recommend anchoring this chest to the wall using an anti-tip kit. This is a critical step for households with children or pets, as it prevents the unit from shifting or tipping if multiple drawers are opened or if the furniture is climbed upon. Ensuring the turned legs are placed on a level surface will also contribute to the overall stability of the piece.
