Abacus Antiques

Description

A lovely Victorian reclaimed antique pine dresser. We date this dresser to the second half of the 19th century.

The dresser is supplied in two sections. The top shelf section and the base cupboard section.

The top recessed section features three sturdy wooden shelves with a panelled back with an attractive stepped cornice.

The base section consists of three drawers fitted with drop handles mounted on backplates these have been replaced with period handles at some time in the past. The drawers are also fitted with locks (no key is supplied but one should be obtainable if required). Below the drawers there is a cupboard with two side hinged panel doors fitted with brass button handles. Internally there is a mid-height fitted shelf.

The dresser has an overall height of 92.5" (234cm), a base section height of 41.5" (106cm), a cornice width of 53" (135cm) and a base depth of 23" (58cm).

This lovely reclaimed pine dresser remains in good solid condition with minor surface markings commensurate with age and usage. The dresser has some marks, indentations and wear to the finish. The top section has some graffiti to the inside left hand panel, the same panel has a chip out of the wood at the bottom front corner. The base section has wear to the back edge on the left hand side and some old paint to the back edges. The cupboard lock has been removed at some time in the past. There are some marks to the insides of the drawers. The lower door handles have been replaced at some point and it's possible to see the old holes.

This remains a stylish and elegant oak dresser. It will continue to provide good service for many years to come.
