Arts and Crafts Yorkshire School Long Adzed Oak Chest
 
A rather gorgeous and long Arts & Crafts Yorkshire School chest with the lovely hand crafted adzed finish rippling over all sides including the back. Not seen one of such scale for a long while and this one was very likely used to store boots and shoes.
 
This lovely piece possesses all the right attributes that you would expect - we have the right amount of wear and historic marks, super wear to the top with a lighting of the oak , proper joints, great shape to the feet and in all a highly attractive chest seldom seen in the market these days.
 
As mentioned, the condition is about right - some wear to the thick solid oak, the top sits right with strong hinges and the worn inside shows its life, likely shoes or maybe logs. We have carefully cleaned the chest so it''s ready for placing. Not surprising that it''s wonderfully weighty.
 
A lovely piece perfect for a period or modern home.
