This piece is one of a kind as the original construction is a 1940s Drexle Mahaongy chest. It was a very common piece and one of Drexel's best sellers in its' day. But it didn't look like this. This chest of drawers was re-built by a furniture hobbiest. The bones ![zd26nbps](https://info.furnitureconsignment.com/hs-fs/file-15663958-jpg/images/zd26nbps.jpg?width=281&height=220&name=zd26nbps.jpg) of the piece are of the original circa 1940s piece, but the veneer work is all new. The veneers were constructed by a first generation Italian craftsman who built by hand an inlaid satin starburst on the surface top. He crafted keyhole accents from genuine ivory and designed a hand cut a satin banded inlay that outlines each of the drawers.  The reconstruction process took months of detailed work and the result is a masterpiece.
