17th century

Sold by Holmes Antiques

Description

A Charles II Oak Chest of Drawers of the most beautiful untouched colour and patina with shades of red and gold. Having very good geometric moulding to the front, with the two deep drawers having the addition of mitred chamfered sections and groundwork added to make them project from the carcass. In very good solid condition and standing on the original feet. The original drawer linings with thick ends on side runners are made in Oak.

A very honest and striking example from this early period.
