Front Street | Bachelor Chest

The Front Street Bachelor Chest by Durham is a solid wood chest with a contemporary style. The cabinet’s three drawers have cedar lined bottoms and soft close drawer glides to keep your items protected and secure. The black metal flake base is custom unless otherwise specified when ordering. Crafted in Canada from solid clean maple, this piece delivers both durability and refined functionality in a smaller footprint. The quality of Durham made furniture is ensured in the fine features including the fortress finished clear coating that resists heat and stains. The fine craftsmanship boasts cabinet corners braced with blocks that are screwed and glued in place to add rigidity and prevent racking. A flush wooded back panel is framed by the top, sides and bottom to provide an added structural strength. An English dovetail joint connects the drawer front and back to the drawer side. It remains tight and snug after thousands of pulls. Smooth drawer interiors are sanded and sealed with coats of clear finish to protect your most delicate items. The wood-on-wood treated drawer guides provide years of quiet, smooth service.
