Description:
They are pedestals from a Victorian dressing table, which have been adapted into bedside chests some time ago. Each bedside chest boasts elegant thumb moulded round cornered tops; this design is also reflected in the plinths. The bedsides each have four graduated working drawers, featuring burr walnut fronts and their original working brass lever locks (with key). The drawers are constructed with fine hand-dovetailed joints; mahogany drawer linings and the original brass drop fret work handles. The drawer linings even boast quarter beading to the frames; this is a true sign of quality. The bedsides stand on their original top quality rounded walnut plinths.
Condition Report:
These bedside chests are in good condition having been French polished in our workshop. They are pedestals from a Victorian dressing table, which have been adapted into bedside chests some time ago. Nominal old use marks to the tops, leading edges and inside the drawers, but nothing significant considering the age of the item. There are no cup marks to the tops of the bedsides. Please note, any colour variation to the tops of the bedsides is due to the natural variation in the grain configuration and patination; this is not a defect or marks to the polish – this is entirely natural. The bedsides each have four graduated working drawers, featuring burr walnut fronts and their original working brass lever locks (with key). The drawers are smooth running and close flush to the frame.
