Yasirah Wooden Chest Of Drawers

Some furniture is honest about where it comes from, and the Yasirah Wooden Chest of Drawers is honest about where it's been. It's made of solid teak with a natural finish, so the wood's own colour and grain are fully apparent, with warm honey tones running across the surface and a lived-in patina no factory could fake. The colours are a little uneven, the joinery is visible and the edges are gently worn, all of which speaks of a piece made by hand and made to be used.

There are nine drawers in three rows, a combination of shallow tops and deeper compartments below, all with plain iron drop handles. That's a lot of storage in a form factor that doesn't take over a room. It works nicely as a wooden chest of drawers in a bedroom or entryway, and as a small storage cabinet it fits a study, a hallway or the corner of a living room where things have a way of piling up.

Lean it against a wall with a mirror above, or use it as a free-standing work surface. The wooden drawers hold everything from folded linens to paperwork to the little things that never quite find a home. This is a chest for people who want furniture that's practical first and good-looking because of it, not in spite of it. Each one is handcrafted by skilled artisans, with small variations in tone and texture that show it was made by a human and not a machine.
