A Large Oak 6 Drawer Plan Map Chest

It's of lovely large scale and we find that these plan map chests look so much better if they are the model raised on legs rather than plinth to ground level. Due to its size it is highly placeable, maybe into a kitchen diner or work space, saying that the last one went into a London gallery for displaying ceramics.

This one is by English maker Abbess offering 6 long oak drawers with original period oak handles, a soft edged oak top and as mentioned, sitting on those 4 workman like solid oak legs. Condition is good for a works piece - the tone is good in the oak and veneer with the odd historic mark and scratches etc all part of its past office life but the piece sits well, all drawers run well, back is good and we have no repairs. Our workshop has carefully repolished to enhance the grain of the oak and ensured it's ready for placing. Fear not, the chest will break down into 2 offering easy moving and placing.

A fine looking plan map chest in oak.

Billy Hunt and Co is located on a large Victorian farm just a short country drive from the Rangemore village, a designated conservation area, which was built by Michael Thomas Bass in the 1850s to house the Bass Rangemore Estate workers consisting mainly of Victorian redbrick cottages and the occasional barn.

Our home is a classic Victorian designed and well equipped late 19th century 2 story red brick built barn of some 4000 sq feet nestled in classic English countryside, which enjoyed a careful full renovation in 2000. The estate still benefits being managed in the traditional manner with an Estate Manger, estate carpenter, gardeners etc. A rather delightful place to have as our work space.

Martina, there is no Billy at Billy hunt, has led the team since 2103 and is an interior designer qualified from The Inchbald School of Design London whose previous working life included such clients as Vertu, Aston Martin and Johnnie Walker to name a few.

Please do not hesitate to call or email if you have any questions on the pieces that may interest you - Many thanks Martina
