Description

The Minimalist Chest of Drawers is a simple and classic design offering ample storage for the home and office. We make this piece in many different sizes and configurations which give diverse functionality for the bedroom, sitting room or office. For office use the drawers can be adapted to incorporate a hanging file solution, or locks - please advise us if this is something you need.

The Minimalist Chest of Drawers is available in various timber and finish options and can optionally be made with brass covered fronts as an alternative to the solid timber drawer fronts.

The Minimalist Chest of Drawers is made with either a rounded- leg base or a plinth base, as per the drawings below. This does not affect the price but it can affect the number of drawers available.

Please note that this design is intended to be placed against a wall and has a Birch Ply backing. Should you require a piece to stand in the middle of a room and be viewed from both sides please enquire for the pricing variation.

Care

Our brass topped tables have been designed to wear - with use scratches and scuff marks will appear. For us this forms part of the charm of the antiquated brass finish, reminiscent of country hotel bar-counters. However, to protect your table and minimize the impact of scratches we recommend that you place rubber or felt pads underneath any medium weight or sharp object placed on top of the table such as lamps, sculptures, computers etc. We also recommend the use of coasters at all times if possible. Water, wine, oils or vinegars should not be allowed to pool on the surface of the brass, nor should the brass be exposed to extreme heat (ie hot coffee, tea) as this could cause marks. Please be aware that unglazed ceramics (such as the underside of plates) are very abrasive - so you may want to use placemats.

After general day-to-day use, wipe down the brass surface with a slightly damp cloth to preserve the wax polish, then dry with a clean soft cloth.

Like all of our indoor furniture, the brass topped tables should not be used outdoors or placed in direct sun everyday. The solid wood will react to the sunlight, temperature changes, and moisture in the air, causing the wood to move and warp. The brass will expand and can warp. Exposure to UV will cause yellowing of the timber and surface cracking.

Air-conditioning dries the air around it, which in turn will dry the timber causing it to crack and warp. Use a humidifier to counteract these effects.

In order to retain the natural finish of the timber we keep the number of protective coats to a minimum. Although this does add to the aesthetic appeal of the product, highlighting the natural qualities of solid wood, it does mean that the finish is not impervious to damage and staining. However, if you follow the instructions laid out below, it should be sufficient for normal use.

After use, wipe down the wood surfaces with a slightly damp cloth to preserve and protect the wood coating. Dry with another cloth if a lot of water remains. Do not expose these products for any extent of time to pools of water. If the products get wet you should dry them off as soon as possible.

If exposed to wine, vinegar and oils / oily food for an extended period of time the wood will stain. To avoid stains, wipe up spills directly with a slightly damp cloth and then dry. Spills should not be left overnight as they will sink in and mark.

Placing hot items on the wood may result in damage or burning. We recommend that you use coasters, and protect the table tops from hot dishes.
