Ithaca Natural 5 Drawer Chest

Based on our expertise with wood veneers, we recommend dusting the surface regularly with a soft, lint-free cloth to prevent buildup. For deeper cleaning, use a cloth slightly dampened with a mixture of mild soap and water, ensuring you wipe the surface dry immediately afterward. Avoid using harsh chemical solvents or wax-based polishes, as these can damage the protective natural finish and affect the luster of the metal pulls.

This piece features a sophisticated hybrid storage layout. One side contains four drawers, including felt-lined top drawers designed to protect delicate items like jewelry or watches from scratches. The opposite side features a sliding door that reveals two hidden, adjustable shelves. This versatility allows you to store a mix of folded clothing and bulkier items, such as storage bins or folded sweaters, that may not fit in a standard drawer configuration.

Yes. The oak veneers used in this contemporary piece are professionally bonded to a stable core, a process that makes the furniture significantly more resistant to the warping and swelling that can often plague solid wood in high-humidity regions. This construction ensures the chest maintains its structural integrity and "natural" aesthetic even in coastal or tropical environments.

Safety is paramount for any vertical storage unit of this height (54"). Because tall furniture can pose a tip-over risk—particularly in homes with children or pets—we strongly recommend utilizing the anti-tip hardware kit included with your purchase. Anchoring the chest directly to a wall stud provides the essential stability required to prevent accidents and ensure a safe home environment.

A 5-drawer chest like this one is designed for vertical efficiency. With a footprint of just 40"w x 18"d, it provides significant storage capacity while utilizing vertical room height (54"h) rather than consuming valuable floor space. This makes it an ideal solution for urban apartments or smaller bedrooms where maintaining clear walkways is essential.

This chest utilizes high-quality French dovetail joints, a hallmark of expert craftsmanship known for its superior strength and resistance to pulling apart under the weight of daily use. To further extend the life of the piece, the drawers are equipped with side-mount, soft-closing glides. These prevent the drawers from slamming—reducing mechanical stress on the frame—while the dustproof bottom drawers ensure your garments stay clean and protected from floor-level debris.
