Product Description
What is it made from?
Each Berkshire chest is built from real birch hardwood with cabinet-grade plywood where it adds strength and stability.
If you prefer another wood species—maple, red oak, white oak, cherry, or walnut—just reach out and we’ll review options and pricing together.
Will it fit my space?
Yes. Every Berkshire chest is built to order, so you can choose from our popular sizes or have us match your exact measurements.
Our chests are 18" deep — a comfortable, practical depth that gives you plenty of drawer storage without feeling bulky in the room.
Before we start building, we’ll go over the measurements together to make sure it fits just right.
What finishes can I choose?
We offer a curated range of paints and stains that work beautifully in both modern and traditional New England homes. Each finish is applied by hand to highlight the natural character of the wood.
We’ll also follow up about hardware options, or you’re welcome to provide your own.
If you’re unsure where to start, we’re happy to walk you through samples and help you find the right look.
How do I care for my wood furniture?
Dust with a soft cloth, clean with mild soap and water, and avoid harsh cleaners.
Try to limit direct sunlight and use coasters or placemats.
A little everyday care keeps your wood looking great for years.
How will my furniture arrive?
We deliver your chest ourselves — blanket-wrapped, fully assembled, and carried right into your home.
Our team handles deliveries across Massachusetts, parts of New York, and parts of New England with the same care we put into building your piece.
How long will it take?
Each Berkshire chest is built to order, so timing depends on the finish you choose.
Most finished pieces take about 10–12 weeks, and unfinished pieces are usually ready in 6–8 weeks.
Once your chest is complete, we’ll reach out to schedule delivery and keep you updated along the way.

When it fits, it feels right.
You know that one spot in your home that finally feels pulled together?
That’s what happens when a chest actually fits — in style, size, and spirit.

Here’s what real furniture feels like.
After living with one of our chests, people tell us their old furniture suddenly feels… temporary.
Here’s what it’s like when you upgrade to the good stuff:
- Smooth, full-extension drawers that glide effortlessly — so everything is easy to reach
- Extra-strong drawers built to handle real life — with inset bottoms for long-term strength
- Tall, space-smart storage that holds a surprising amount — without taking over the room
Built once. Built right. Built to outlast your next three couches.
