Penderyn Antiques are a family run business residing in an old Welsh chapel in the heart of the Brecon Beacons National Park. We source and restore a wide range of furniture, antiques, interiors and collectables. We have no specific style that we adhere to, (if we like it, we’ll buy it!) but we do have a keen interest in early Welsh country furniture and unusual decorative items.
At Penderyn Antiques, we express an indebtedness to those nameless joiners who worked with wood so long ago before plastics and the age of automation. For in building furniture with integrity; so that it will last hundreds of years, they have been our mentors. Their work remains a testament to their commitment to their craft and excellence. Wood is the most used of all our natural resources. We have a duty to recycle, reuse, adapt and preserve it. We must use wood to create furniture that has longevity and combat the ‘throwaway’ society…even though it does grow on trees..”

condition
In good antique condition throughout with some signs of age. There is surface wear in places including age-related marks to the surface top and front. Evidence of historic woodworm, particularly to the back legs, which is long inactive and has been treated as a precaution. Two blocks have been added to level the dresser, which historically leaned backwards against a wall. Drawers run well, and the piece is solid and sound. Overall, a lovely example.
Our experienced carpenter meticulously inspects, repairs, and restores each item in our collection. This ensures that every piece you purchase from us is ready to be seamlessly incorporated into your home. To provide you with a comprehensive understanding of the item’s condition, we kindly request that you take a moment to thoroughly review all the accompanying photos.
