Caronia Dresser, First Class

Over the past few years at Luxury Liner Row, I have been fortunate to sell about a dozen beautiful mahogany second-class chests of drawers from the RMS Queen Mary, and they have all sold quickly.  This, however, is the only time I have been able to offer a first-class Cunard Line dresser.  Since nearly all of the built-in first-class furniture…
