As one of Australia’s leading furniture designer-makers, Evan Dunstone’s work is a celebration of wood and craftsmanship. More about Evan here.

Anyone lucky enough to own an original Dunstone Design has an heirloom piece.

This campaign chest borrows some of the distinct properties of campaign furniture; stacked boxes which break down easily, brass corners and recessed handles for protection. The blackwood is grain-matched down the sides, with exposed dovetail joints. Drawer inners and runners are American rock maple.
