Description
Here is a good quality antique oak dresser base, circa 1760 - 1780 (George III period) originating from the border area between Shropshire, Cheshire & Staffordshire, England, in good clean original condition with excellent proportions. The dresser boasts great craftsmanship, colour and patination and measures 6ft 2⅜” wide. The two-piece top features an elegant reverse moulding. The dresser consists of three large drawers above two smaller narrow drawers. The drawers feature decorative mahogany cross banding and retain the original brass swan neck handles and escutcheons, all of which are in keeping with the period. The two large outer drawers feature a working lever lock (and key) and the central large drawer has a sham lock. Lovely medullary rays are prominent to the drawer fronts. The drawers are pine lined and hand-dovetailed. The dresser boasts an elegant curved apron, which meets two smaller drawers either side of the dresser base and has raised fielded panels on each side of the dresser, typical of dressers from this area. The dresser stands on pronounced cabriole legs to the front and block legs at the back. The back of the dresser retains its original pine backboards. The dresser frame has been constructed with the traditional peg construction method.

The dresser features a superb rich deep brown and red oak colour. As it boasts the original polish, it has a fantastic colour and patination this can only be achieved through age and years of care and cleaning it has received.

The dresser would look superb in any hallway, kitchen or dining room. This item would certainly grace any home and is a great investment as it is extremely functional. So don't miss out your chance to own a lovely piece of antique furniture.
