Overview
With its deeply splayed legs producing dramatic cantilevers, the Astrid 6 Drawer Dresser is an engineering feat that defies expectations and inspires a sense of possibility. Handmade in Vermont using eco-friendly, sustainably harvested solid cherry wood, Astrid's clean, simple design creates an oasis of quiet harmony for the high-end urban bedroom.
What Makes the Astrid 6 Drawer Dresser Unique: Cantilevered Body on Splayed Legs
The Astrid 6 Drawer Dresser is an unusual object in the dresser category—most dressers are visually grounded objects, wide and stable-looking. The Astrid does the opposite: it pairs a wide body with widely splayed legs, and that unique base gives the dresser an unexpected sense of lightness and modern style. The dresser's substantial case appears to float on the splayed legs below it, creating the same dramatic cantilever effect that defines the Astrid platform bed. The result is a piece that reads as simultaneously heavy (in the quality of its solid hardwood construction) and light (in its visual posture).
The leading edge of this high-end dresser is beveled to present a thin, delicate line that belies its considerable heft—a refined detail that gives the dresser's front face a sharp, precise edge profile that makes the case look thinner and more elegant from the front than its actual depth would suggest.
Wood Species & Finish Options
The Astrid 6 Drawer Dresser is available in three primary material configurations:
1. Solid Cherry Hardwood—the original and most common configuration. Available in multiple cherry finishes:
Natural Cherry—the warm reddish-tan of freshly finished cherry, which deepens and mellows to a rich reddish-brown over months and years through natural light oxidization. Furniture crafted from cherry wood becomes darker with age. The change in color, from a reddish tan to a reddish brown, is most noticeable during the first six months of ownership. This living, evolving patina is considered a hallmark of cherry's character.
Cognac Cherry—a deeper, warmer amber-brown stained finish
Smoke Cherry—a cooler, grayish-brown stained finish
Autumn Cherry—a warm, medium-brown stained finish
Saddle Cherry—a rich, warm brown
2. Solid Walnut + Dark Chocolate Maple—American black walnut for the primary case surfaces paired with dark chocolate maple for secondary elements, creating a rich two-tone combination. Natural Walnut is the primary finish available in this configuration.
3. Solid Maple—a third option noted at select retailers, providing a lighter, more neutral wood tone. Available in several stained finishes.
All finishes use a post-catalyzed conversion varnish that is GREENGUARD Certified for low chemical emissions—an important indoor air quality certification for bedroom furniture where extended daily exposure occurs.
Dimensions
Overall dimensions: 18"D × 66"W × 31.38"H
At 66" wide, the Astrid 6 Drawer Dresser is a genuinely large dresser—wider than most competitors at the same price point—providing a substantial horizontal presence in the bedroom. At 31.38" tall, it sits at a comfortable, mid-height dresser level—not so low as to require bending deeply to access lower drawers, not so high as to dominate a room with lower ceilings. The 18" depth is notably shallow for a 6-drawer dresser, contributing to the piece's visual lightness
Care & Maintenance
To preserve the beauty of the finish, simply clean the surface of the furniture with a soft, damp cloth and then dry it thoroughly. No waxes, oils, or commercial cleaning solutions are needed or recommended. The post-catalyzed conversion varnish finish is designed to be durable and low-maintenance for decades of use.
For cherry wood specifically: An object left on a cherry wood surface for an extended period of time may retard the aging process in a limited area. Simply remove the object, and over time, the surface will attain a uniform reddish-brown color. Avoid leaving books, decorative objects, or anything else sitting in a fixed position on the dresser top for extended periods during the first year to allow the patina to develop evenly
