Chesterton Double Chest of 6 Drawers - Natural

Our Ethical Tag System

The Chesterton Chest of Drawers is crafted from a sturdy frame of solid Bayur wood, paired with a real Mindi wood veneer and a raised wicker rattan top detail. Sourced responsibly from certified Indonesian plantations, these fast-growing, highly renewable natural materials offer exceptional resource efficiency and dimensional stability without sacrificing strength.

While solid wood excels at resisting dents, Mindi veneer offers superior structural durability by eliminating the risk of warping, splitting, and cracking caused by household heating. Slicing the wood thin and bonding it to a rigid core permanently locks the grain in place, ensuring tabletops and doors stay perfectly flat for decades. This clever design delivers the authentic look and feel of real wood grain with a highly stable structure built to last.

Garden Trading uses solid brass hardware across their collections, selected for its natural durability, rust resistance, and long-lasting quality. Unlike plated metals, solid brass won't chip or peel over time, aging gracefully while standing up to daily use.

Garden Trading uses highly responsible, high-density cardboard packaging specifically designed to minimise waste while ensuring maximum transit protection. To keep its carbon footprint low, large items like dining tables and benches are expertly flat-packed into streamlined, space-efficient cartons, significantly reducing the transport emissions required for delivery.

Prioritising sustainability, Garden Trading uses mostly recycled, fully recyclable paper-based materials, avoiding excessive plastic wrap and eliminating bulky, non-recyclable fillers wherever possible. This ensures your furniture arrives safely and securely in an eco-friendly package that can be easily disposed of in standard household recycling bins
