The Amish Jr Bear Lodge Chest brings a warm, rustic charm to any bedroom or living space, blending artisanal craftsmanship with practical storage. Handcrafted by Amish woodworkers in Indiana, this chest is built with care and attention to detail, ensuring it becomes a lasting piece in your home.

What sets this chest apart is its unique use of steamed hickory saplings. Each sapling is carefully heated and bent, creating organic, curved accents that frame the piece—no two are identical, thanks to the natural variations in the wood’s bending and size. This gives the chest a one-of-a-kind, handcrafted feel that mass-produced furniture simply can’t match. The hickory isn’t just beautiful; it’s earth-friendly too, with saplings regrowing and ready for harvest in just 3–5 years, making it a thoughtful choice for those who value sustainability.

Beneath its rustic exterior lies solid functionality. The chest features three drawers with 3/4 extension slides, making it easy to access stored items, whether linens, clothing, or keepsakes. Counterweights add stability, ensuring the chest stands firm even when drawers are fully extended. The natural varnish finish highlights the wood’s inherent grain and character, though an optional stained finish lets you tailor the look to your decor. For added versatility, an optional mirror can be mounted, turning the chest into a practical vanity or entryway statement piece.

Crafted from solid hardwood combinations like hickory twigs with red oak or rustic cherry, this chest balances durability with warmth. It’s more than just storage—it’s a conversation starter, a reflection of timeless Amish craftsmanship, and a piece that will grow with your family, holding memories for years to come. Whether placed in a cozy cabin or a modern home, the Jr Bear Lodge Chest adds heart and function to any space.
