Description

One of the lesser known designs from Alfred Cox and maybe one of the best with the use of some superior timber, the narrow stance and those period brass handles. This one with its 6 drawers could creep into any space home or commercial, period or modern.

Alfred Cox retailed in the top department stores including Heal’s and it’s the simple sleek design and the use of the right timber that makes this one shine. The attention to detail is wonderful. So often makers use substandard timber on the sides, however this chest possesses a stunning grain to the walnut on both sides. The graduated drawers are a perfect fit in a lighter shade of walnut and these sit perched on some well angled teak legs.

Workshop report – Fortunately a one owner piece, so has not suffered from being moved around. We have carefully hand stripped the chest to enhance those timbers. The original well angled and shaped brass handles are all in place and the piece sits firm with no wobbles or sways. We do have a tiny chip to the side of the third drawer down but not fresh. The chest does have gentle wear, nothing ugly. The drawers are running fine and we have ensured they are clean. Ready for placing with the maker's label to the top drawer.

A super piece of British Mid Century furniture in fine order.
