Description

DateGeorge III : Circa 1790. DimensionsWidth 42” (107cm) Depth 22” (56cm) Height 73” (185cm) ConditionThis item is in excellent original structural condition. The polish has been revived, by our own craftsmen by hand in the traditional manner. There are some old marks under the polish, mostly minor but there are some deeper scores to the bottom drawer of the top section (see photo). The corners of the cornice have also had slight damage and been smoothed off at some point (see photo). Most of the handles are original but a few of the drops and back plates have been replaced over the years, but are similar and of the same period. There is no ‘handle problem’, i.e. unsightly marks left by previous handles. Codeas161a394 / A8826 Price SOLD £1950.00 StatusSold SellerPeter J.
