5 Drawer Chest Book Matched Veneers - Gray

This five-drawer chest is for anyone who wants clean-lined, contemporary storage with a refined, furniture‑grade finish. Designed for bedrooms and dressing areas, it brings roomy vertical storage for folded clothes, linens and seasonal layers while acting as a sculptural anchor in modern or transitional spaces. The book‑matched veneer on the drawer fronts gives a subtle chevron-like grain that reads like custom millwork—elegant without feeling ornate.

Day-to-day it performs like a workhorse: deep drawers on smooth side‑ or ball‑bearing guides, minimalist rectangular pulls and tapered metal legs that lift the piece and make floor cleaning easier. The gray stain with cool undertones and nickel‑tone hardware creates a neutral palette that layers easily with warm woods, matte black accents or soft textiles. Built from wood and engineered substrates with custom hardware and veneered drawer faces, it strikes a balance between craftsmanship and livable durability.

Key benefits

• Refined veneer detail: Book‑matched drawer faces create a continuous, upscale wood grain pattern that elevates a simple silhouette.

Fit & installation guidance

Because the chest is a full‑width piece (about 40" / 101.6 cm), measure doorways, stairwells and elevators before delivery. Standard single doorways often require angling the piece slightly—measure both the chest and the path to ensure clearance. Place it against a finished wall on a level surface and allow a few inches behind the back for baseboard and airflow.

Care & maintenance

Wipe spills promptly with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth; avoid harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive pads. For veneer surfaces, use a mild wood cleaner or polish made for finished wood if desired, and always test on an inconspicuous area first. Keep away from direct heat and prolonged sunlight to minimize color change and avoid placing very heavy, point‑load objects on a single drawer front.

Sustainability & safety

The piece uses veneer over engineered wood and solid components typical of contemporary bedroom furniture; check your retailer for any formal certifications (FSC, CARB, GREENGUARD) tied to specific production runs. Anchor the chest to the wall with an anti‑tip restraint (included or as recommended by the retailer) when placed in homes with children or uneven floors—this reduces the risk of tipping during use.
