An Oak “mule” chest of Yorkshire origins, with features influenced by Thomas Chippendale (who lived in Otley). The term “mule” chest is used to describe a chest which is neither one thing or another ie. a mule is a cross between a horse and a donkey. Therefore, a “mule” chest is a cross between a coffer and a chest of drawers. This design features fine fluted quarter-turned columns and ogee-shaped bracket feet, together with arched, fielded panelled doors and seven practical drawers.
