Locating a discontinued chest of drawers

I don't know of anyone can help me.
About 10 years ago I bought some Julian Bowen solid wooden furniture. The only item I have left is this set of drawers.
I would love to locate another set second hand so can upcycle them both.
I have contacted Julian Bowen who have told me that it isn't the minuet range, the legs and handles are different(which it was sold as)
I can't remember which retailer I bought it from as it was 10+ years ago
I've reverse searched the item with no luck.
Can anyone help me track down what the range is called. It was definitely Julian Bowen.
Thanks

So why wouldn't Julian Bowen tell you what range it was? Sorry, don't mean to be abrupt, just bemused at them. After all, they are the manufactures...

I'd say it's Julian Bowen Minuet Wenge, as you thought. It's very discontinued, though 😢

Depends how badly you want the same thing! You'll probably find a second-hand one eventually. Or buy a new pair of similar items.

Hi, I used to own this exact set!

I'm pretty sure it was around 15years ago and called Minuet, they've probably updated the style and that's why they don't recognise it as the same. I'd guess the newer style would still match well with the colour of yours but you may have to find whole new second hand set perhaps. Good luck

Thankyou!
Yeah it looks like they changed the design at some point, both styles are called minuet.
Its the design I'm after as the legs are different, I've found some on fb and ebay but the legs are different so would look strange together. I'm planning on upcycling them as the set I've got are very old. They were inside a built in wardrobe for years so it didn't matter.
I'll keep trawling ebay and gumtree etc.
