Havard and Havard has dated this piece to the 1800s.
The fall fronted panel and series of small drawers with evidence of ink stains suggests use as a piece of writing furniture, the candle burn on the right hand door perhaps from a carelessly positioned candlestick on the open fall front.
The boldly fluted frieze, fluted quadrant pilasters and rich array of fielded and flush panels give it a strongly architectural feel.
The low waisted base has a row of false drawers and two deep lower drawers and sits on rare, stop-fluted bracket feet. The piece retains most of its original brassware.
Cardiganshire, circa 1790.
