Shaker-inspired, exceedingly utilitarian, one secret.
Framed by four integral legs that ascend to its broad top of matched-grain hardwood, the Dr. White’s Chest offers a sense of solidity and stability. The chest’s Shaker-inspired design is exceedingly utilitarian, with drawers that slide with ease on handmade slides for a lifetime of use, without any mechanical assistance. The construction maximizes available storage space, each housing nests within the hand-finished frame.
The Dr. White’s Chest also integrates a pair of cupboard doors that conceal adjustable shelves, and a much-lauded secret compartment designed to contain and protect valuables.
