In A Nutshell Antiques and Interiors has dated this piece to the Georgian era.
It has pierced brass handles and matching escutcheons which, although are not original, suit the style and age of the piece very well. The piece sits on simple bracket feet. The lower section contains three graduating drawers and the top section contains three small over three long drawers. The piece splits into two parts to make transport easier.
The whole piece is in good condition. It is sturdy and the oak lined drawers are generally clean and tidy and all open well. There are no signs of worm and it has developed a beautiful patina with a deep rich colour. It has been well maintained over the years and as such has some small old repairs to the veneer in places. There are some minor signs of age and use, a small split near the top cornice, a chip near the back and an old shrinkage split on the brushing slide but nothing major or untoward (see photos). Overall it displays beautifully.
The best description comes from the photos so please look at them all carefully and if you have any questions please ask. Nationwide delivery available, please get in touch for an accurate quote.
