Mid-Century Carved Rosewood Dresser by Far Eastern Furnishings
This mid-century carved rosewood dresser by Far Eastern Furnishings is a stunning blend of exquisite hand-carving and expert craftsmanship. Featuring nine drawers, each adorned with deeply carved scenes of birds perched on flowering branches, this dresser showcases traditional Chinese woodworking techniques with timeless mid-century elegance. The rich, warm-toned rosewood grain enhances the intricate carvings, making it a true statement piece.
Built with dovetail construction, the drawers glide smoothly, ensuring lasting durability. The recessed oval drawer pulls are seamlessly integrated into the carvings, maintaining a refined and sculptural aesthetic. Using mortise and tenon joinery, this dresser is exceptionally heavy and solid, designed for strength and longevity.
Condition:
In good vintage condition, with minor signs of wear consistent with age and use. There are tiny, nearly imperceptible chips on the bird tail and branches on the bottom right drawer, along with a 1-inch chip on the bottom left drawer, which is barely noticeable. The top surface shows light signs of use, but there are no deep scratches or significant damage. The front left leg has a previous repair but remains stable and structurally sound. These minor imperfections do not detract from the dresser’s impressive craftsmanship and elegant appearance.
