Darjeeling Chest of Drawers

Made exclusively for French Bedroom.

Carved from mango wood and hand-finished in Farrow & Ball James White paint, the artisanal Darjeeling Chest of Drawers has classic bun feet, four drawers and painted rope-style handles.

We chose mango wood for this chest of drawers for both its beautifully rich warm tones as well as its kindness to the planet. Once the mango fruit is used, the standard practice is that the trees are burnt down to clear space for replanting. However, by using the wood, the farmers gain extra income, and their environment is not polluted or heated by smoke from the fires.

Additional advantages to mango wood are its density and durability. The four wide drawers in this French Chest of Drawers are on wood runners. The top drawer is slender and shallow, intended for lingerie and smalls, and sits atop a plinth-style rail, providing visual separation from the three deeper drawers below.

This is a classically elegant piece of white bedroom furniture, built to last; travelling with you across your homes, your style changes, and be passed down through the generations.

We love the strong visual contrast between the warm-toned wooden interior and the pure white painted exterior and are styling this white chest of drawers with a colourful statement lamp and a floral upholstered bed.

A matching large bedside table is also available.

Please note that due to the delicate nature of the paintwork, care must be taken when handling this chest as jewellery and other hard items will scratch the paintwork, although we think signs of use and love will add to the charm of this piece.
