A rustic Victorian pine chest of drawers, with a warm honey-coloured finish, attractive natural grain and plenty of signs of age and use.
The rectangular top sits above three full-width drawers, each fitted with a dark turned wooden knob. Raised on four turned feet, with a decorative moulded apron beneath the drawers.
Of particularly useful proportions, measuring just 37cm deep, this is a relatively shallow chest that would work well in a hallway or narrower space where depth is limited. The three-drawer configuration provides useful storage without taking up too much floor space.
The pine retains a mellow colour, with natural knots, variations in tone and an aged surface.
Dimensions:
Height – 96cm / Width – 80cm / Depth – 37cm
Condition:
In rustic antique condition, with considerable signs of age and use throughout. Evidence of historic woodworm damage, particularly to the turned feet, with further damage to the rear left corner. The woodworm is long gone and the piece has been treated as a precaution.
There are losses to sections of the lower moulding at either side, together with areas of white filler to the top and sides. Various marks, scratches and surface wear throughout. The drawers run well and the chest remains solid and sound.
