Solid Bayur wood, a gently curved front, three smooth-gliding drawers, metal ring pulls — the Kendal chest that brings quiet craftsmanship to any bedroom or living space.
Bayur wood is not one of the familiar names in furniture — and that relative rarity is precisely what makes the Kendal distinctive. A tropical hardwood with a fine, even grain and a natural warmth of tone that sits somewhere between light oak and pale walnut, Bayur brings a refined, unhurried quality to a three-drawer chest that the more common furniture timbers cannot quite replicate. The gently curved front profile is the other considered detail — a subtle bow across each drawer front that breaks the flat, rectangular plane of a standard chest in a way that adds visual interest without demanding attention. At 90cm wide and 89cm tall, the proportions are generous without being imposing.
What sets it apart
The detail that makes it different
The curved front is the Kendal's most quietly distinctive quality — the gentle convex bow across each drawer front gives the chest a sculptural, almost furniture-maker quality that a flat-fronted three-drawer chest cannot achieve. It is a detail that requires more craft in the making and rewards close attention in the living with. The natural finish on the Bayur wood lets the grain speak for itself — the organic variation in tone and texture across the drawer fronts gives the chest a depth and life that painted or heavily lacquered alternatives lack. Metal ring pulls on each drawer add the traditional hardware touch that suits both the material and the curved form.
