19th century

Sold by Marylebone Antiques

Description

This antique rosewood linen press is quite tall & very slim. It comes apart in two sections for easy transportation & it's really good quality. I would say it dates to around the 1820-40 period, judging from the design & handles. The inside shelves have been replaced, because originally they would have been sliding trays for linen, but a lot of these went missing when people decided to put hanging rails instead. It looks like it was originally made to fit in a narrow recess, because of the slim proportions & the way the cornice & plinth base don't stick out much. There are lovely panels on the top cupboards, while all the bottom drawers have locks & turned handles. This linen press has been fully restored & polished to retain the original colour. By the way, there is a little mark showing on the left hand corner of the base. This will be taken care of before it goes out, as we never let anything go until checking & fixing if necessary.

Width - 41", 104 cm

Depth - 18.5", 47 cm

Height - 84", 213 cm
