Valley Wallpaper — Blog

Today I’m sharing a home office update! As you all know, in March and April I worked very hard to turn this space that once was our guest room, into the office of my dreams! I’ve now had my Serena and Lily Pierson Dresser in my office for about three months, so I wanted to share a review of how I’m liking it. I originally sourced this piece for my new office because my sample library was growing and I needed a ton of storage space. I chose the Pierson Dresser because of its wide width (62” wide, 20” deep) and it’s versatile silhouette. I love that this piece is the focal point of the space. It really grounds the back wall, and compliments the Valley Wallpaper so nicely.

I love the extra tall legs on the Pierson Dresser. They give this piece such a versatile look that allows it to be used in so many spaces aside from a bedroom. I think the Pierson Dresser could be used as a sideboard as well as a dresser, and would look nice in an entryway, dining room, office, bedroom, or also as a media console! I know this piece is going to be with me for a very long time, and is likely going to have many uses throughout its lifetime.

I love the craftsmanship of Serena and Lily pieces. The Pierson Dresser has solid wood drawers with a natural wood interior, with a soft closing mechanism that gives the piece a luxe feel. It fits all my samples with room to spare! I love that I don’t have to get up out of my desk chair in order to access everything I need.

The simple shaker style drawer fronts and inset detail give this piece a clean and timeless look. This is surely a piece that will remain a stylish favorite for many years to come. It’s very important to me to choose pieces that have a classic and timeless feel, but with a modern twist. This is another thing that I know I’m sure to find from Serena and Lily, and they certainly delivered with the Pierson Dresser! I have already loved it for years, and am certain I’ll continue to love it for many more.

Another favorite feature of mine is the tray style top the Pierson Dresser has. This gives the pieces such a unique and custom feel, and is a detail I have never seen on any dresser before. It’s one of the features that originally caught my eye! The hand-forged brass hardware also gives the piece just the right amount of polish. The pulls are very solid in hand and give the piece an effortless, sophisticated feel.

This piece is very easy to care for and low maintenance—I simply dust it off with a soft, dry dusting cloth once a week to keep it looking good as new! The white painted finish has a slight glossy sheen, which helps make it easy to wipe down. The extra tall tapered legs allow me to easily run the vacuum underneath, so I never have to worry about moving it to clean up the dust bunnies every few months like with most traditional dressers. In case you do have to shift it around on occasion, it's worry free! It’s been tip tested and exceeds the industry standard for stability. I think Serena and Lily pieces are the best made pieces we have in our home—they make is easy to always source them with confidence for my clients.

I’d say the paint finish is a true, slightly warm, bright white. If you’re not sure it will work in your space, you can easily order a sample swatch of the furniture! I love that Serena and Lily offers swatches for many of their items so you can be sure you’ll love it in your home before you place your order. The hand-forged brass hardware is similar to an aged or antique brass look, and has a very luxe feel to it. In my opinion, it’s the perfect tone! It’s what I always strive for when I source brass finishes.

I would highly recommend the Pierson Dresser to anyone! It’s a piece that can be used in virtually any room, which makes this a worry free investment to add to your furniture collection! It’s solid, quality craftsmanship makes it a piece that you will be able to cherish for many years, and it’s unique detailing sets it apart from the rest.

I’ve sourced the Pierson Dresser for various spaces for many of my clients over the years, and I’m so excited to now have it in my home. It definitely lived up to my expectations and then some! I’m a huge fan of Serena and Lily dressers, and think many of their other styles offer the same versatility as the Pierson Dresser. I’m going to link a few of my favorites below!
