When we find a gorgeous piece of furniture of this high quality and from a maker of such high regard, we must have it to offer to you! This Country French Provincial style bachelor chest is circa mid-late 20^th century by Baker Furniture. The wood grain and color on this incredible chest is exceptional. Plus, it is comprised of a beautifully detailed case that is fitted with four drawers of equal depth. Two narrow drawers on top and two full width drawers as the bottom two. The drawers are fitted with ornate antique brass handles and key escutcheons that accent the carved drawer fronts wonderfully. The sinuous cabinet apron has a beautiful scroll and feather carved design. The front legs are grooved and flow seamlessly into the delicate curved scroll of the foot.

Baker is one of the most prestigious names in furniture! They were founded in 1890 by Siebe Baker, an immigrant from the Netherlands as an interior woodwork and door company. Three years later they made their first piece of furniture. In 1910 Siebe’s son, Hollis S. Baker, joined the company as a salesman and throughout most of Baker’s existence it was a family-controlled business, even being sold and repurchased in the 1920s-1930s. Baker is considered a design legacy and over the years they have produced furniture designed by such greats as Donald Desky and Kem Weber in the early 20^th century, Finn Juhl in the mid-20^th century, and John Saladino and Barbara Barry in the late 20^th century. They have introduced many award-winning furniture collections including, during the 1940s and 1950s, Far East Collection, the first Asian furniture collection manufactured in the USA; and Palladian Collection an Italian neo classic design. Then, in the 1960s and 1970s the introduction of  country English and French Provincial featuring the reproduction of choice antiques from the home of the Duke and Duchess of Bedford. After decades of being in the Baker family hands, in 1969 it was sold to Magnavox then in 1986 to Kohler Co. It remains today a part of Kohler and operates out of North Carolina. Still one of the top names in furniture.
