  • Dimensions

    85cm high x 95cm wide x 57cm deep

  • Condition

    There are marks, knocks and scratches commensurate with age and use. There are various minor splits, losses and repair to the veneer and inlay. The chest has been cut (probably for removal) and there is evidence of previous restoration that probably occurred at a similar time, including replacement of the outer border and crossbanded edge of the top, re-lining of the drawers and replacement of the backboards, handles and bun feet. There is a loss to the bottom of the escutcheon of the bottom drawer. There are occasional woodworm holes but the chest appears structurally sound and all the drawers run smoothly. The chest has a very good colour and patina and the parquetry of the top is in generally good order. An unusual and useful chest of attractive proportions.

  • Time period

    William & Mary/ Queen Anne; turn of the 17th century

DESCRIPTIONS & VIEWING

Our ethos is openness and honesty. We make every effort to provide a full and accurate description of an item’s condition but ultimately this, alongside our interpretation of materials, attribution, age, date, origin and provenance, is our statement of opinion. Viewing and inspection is welcomed before purchase and offers buyers the fullest opportunity to investigate an item thoroughly.

Viewings are welcome and are strictly by appointment only. Please call or email to arrange a viewing.

DELIVERY

We can usually arrange delivery with a third party courier on behalf of the buyer. Typical costs are around £80 - £100 within mainland UK for an average-sized chest of drawers and may take up to 14 days, unless an expediated service is required. Costs will be higher for larger items and remote locations.
