In A Nutshell Antiques and Interiors has dated this piece to the 19th Century.
The doors and both long drawers are lockable and come with their original working keys. Each drawer has got beautiful hand-made dovetail joints and the inside of the cupboard is lined with blue paper.
Each element has been finished to the highest standard and the result is a superb piece. It has been very well looked after over the years and is in excellent condition for its age. There are no major damages and the wood has a lovely rich patina. The drawers all run well and the hinges on the doors are strong. There is a small chip on the side of the piece which has been filled and repaired at some point. As is often the case with a piece of such age the main carcass has shrunk a tad over the period of 170+ years and there are some very slight hairline fractures to the veneer but as can be seen in the numerous photographs they do not detract from what is a fine looking item.
The best description comes from the photos so please look at them all carefully and if you have any questions please ask.
