I made this from a design in Thomas Chippendale's "The Gentlemen and Cabinetmakers' Director". It has two internal shelves for storing clothes. All the drawers have working locks and the brass is from Londonderry.com brasses. Their motto is "When Authenticity Counts". It took about 250 hours. Wholly done with mortise and tenon (pinned) and dovetails. The carcass is dovetailed to avoid using any nails. The feet are typical Chippendale with ogee bracket feet. I used only rough lumber which I mill to final dimensions. The moulding is my own design.
Estimated Cost
$1200.00 plus $600 for the brasses and locks
Estimated Time Investment
Week Long Project (20 Hours or More)
Finish Used
Minwax Antique Oil Finish, Beeswax.
Recommended Skill Level
Intermediate

Wow - quite an heirloom! I've always admired fine furniture, although I tend to go more rustic myself. Thanks for sharing!
