Miniature Oak Chest of Drawers, Early 19th Century

Whether an apprentice piece, salesman’s sample or child’s dolls house example these pieces now have the practical value of being used as jewelry boxes or repositories for valuables.  With a practical size 6 ins deep this two short and three long drawer piece is in fine condition with well joined construction, but oddly with the addition of wire nails to secure the top.
The quarter sawn oak timbers are well aged and figured with no repairs or replacements.
A rather nice vernacular miniature.

English c. 1800
