Description: Stunning faux bamboo Victorian tall chest with side lock
attributed to R.J. Horner, NYC. The beveled mirror has a beehive finial on each side with a spindled top. The five drawers all have the original bar
pulls. The drawers, mirror, and side panels are all framed by quarter round
faux bamboo moldings typical of the R.J. Horner firm. The side bar on the
right side was originally used to lock the drawers to keep the maid from
getting into the gentleman's belongings when he was absent. The lock is
still intact but we don't have the original key. I have included an old key
to put in the lock for "looks." This is a fine example of this genre of
furniture in prime original condition!
