Small 18thC Welsh Light Oak Potboard Dresser


A super rare and very sweet little 4ft Welsh oak Pot-board cottage dresser from the parish of Whitland on the Pembrokeshire/Carmarthenshire border in West Wales c1780.
A highly sought after traditional West Wales dresser renown for their simple beauty created by perfect proportions, quality timber and unique understated look. This is without doubt one of the prettiest examples of a dresser from this region that we have seen in a long while.
Having been professionally restored recently to a very high standard with quality reports to the bottom of the rear legs and re polishing the condition is superb and the colour, patina and skin are breathtaking.
With perfect proportions and standing at full original height, is superbly solid and sturdy and stands level and true. The drawers having later period wooden knobs all run smoothly and are all clean inside.
A better example of a Welsh dresser of its type would be hard to find, a superb dresser indeed.
Length 3ft 11.5” = 121cm. Height 6ft 4.5” = 195cm. Base Height 32.5” = 83cm. Base Depth 15” = 38cm.
This lovely dresser comes in two parts for easy transportation.
