Here is a fine quality antique Edwardian walnut box settle, circa 1910, in excellent original condition. The upright section consists of a reeded frame containing a central panel carved with fine foliate detail, flanked by two reeded panels. The back is supported by arms either side of the seat, with a down swept design incorporating reeded detail. The settle features a lockable box section below. The door retains its original working lock (with a key) and it allows the box to be secured whilst the door is closed. A brass stay supports the door whilst open. Inside the box settle is a removable shelf. The door panel is elegantly carved with a reeded-fielded panel, flanked by two floral carved fielded panels. The settle stands on turned pad feet to the front, with block feet to the back. This settle was designed to be placed in the hall, to allow you to sit and put on/remove your shoes and provide ample storage of shoes, and thus keep the hallway area tidy. This item features a mellow walnut colour and has a fantastic patination.
