Description
Design. Practical storage that is great for various rooms of the home, the Kora 5 Drawer Tall Chest features 5 handy drawers for simple storage of various belongings right round the home. Including an intriguing, textured wood detailing on its central drawer for a stunning touch of interest, the Kora’s dark sheesham wood frame has a gorgeous natural grain, beautifully offset by the warm tone of its brass accents. For an elegant finishing touch, tall feet (neatly capped for a modern finish) lift it off the ground for a sense of space.
Our Stylist Says
The Kora 5 Drawer Tall Chest is a versatile piece that works well in both contemporary and mid-century inspired interiors. I love its rich, dark wood finish and the subtle brass accents, which lend a touch of sophistication without feeling too formal. It’s great for bedrooms or living spaces where you need practical storage, but it can also serve as a statement piece when styled with minimalist accessories. Practical styling tips include pairing it with understated ceramic vases or a sculptural lamp on top, and keeping the drawers organised with colour-coordinated or textured storage boxes inside. Its compact height makes it ideal for tight corners or alongside larger furniture pieces, offering stylish storage without overwhelming the space.

A Remarkable Journey
Born from the vision of two young RAF men, Charles Barker and Alex Stonehouse, Barker and Stonehouse emerged as a beacon of hope, infusing post-war Britain with a hint of glamour. Starting from a single store in Stockton on Tees, their entrepreneurial spirit led to rapid expansion, opening multiple stores across the region.
Their fast growth was fueled not only by their flair for business but also by their dedication to innovation. The business transformed over the years, adapting to the changing landscapes of retail, all while preserving its charm and values. By 2021, they marked an impressive 75 years in the industry, a testament to their enduring commitment to quality and customer service.
Sustainability at the Forefront
From the very start, Barker and Stonehouse has held a deep commitment to the environment. This devotion was showcased through initiatives such as the Trees4Trees Project, a reforestation effort in Indonesia.
Ensuring that for every tree used in their products, more than two were replanted, nearly 1.5 million trees have been restored under this initiative.
Their Knaresborough store, one of the greenest retail stores in the UK, further underscores their dedication to sustainable practices. As a cherry on top, by 2021, the company achieved the status of "Carbon Neutral Plus", making them a trailblazer in the furniture industry.
Innovative Spaces and Expanding Horizons
Over the decades, Barker and Stonehouse didn't just expand in number, but in the quality and innovation of their spaces. From opening their iconic store in Battersea, London, which beautifully preserved the characteristics of an old candle factory, to their latest state-of-the-art Gateshead store in 2023, every location tells a story.
They have also ventured into digital realms, ensuring a vast online presence and offering a wide range of products to customers all over the UK. Their partnerships, like the one with Fenwick in 2021, illustrate their adaptability and constant quest to reach new audiences.
