Penderyn Antiques

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..”

Description
A handsome Welsh oak dresser dating from the 18th century, comprising a narrow dresser base with associated open plate rack above. The base is fitted with three drawers above a shaped apron with attractive scrolling detail, raised on slender turned supports united by a low potboard base. The upper rack features three shelves with a series of small iron hooks beneath, traditionally used for hanging cups, utensils or pewter spoons. The dresser has a boarded back of broad planks. The oak has developed a deep, rich colour and patina throughout with lovely grain and surface character. A particularly attractive country piece with elegant proportions and good scale.

condition
In excellent antique condition throughout with signs of age and use commensurate with period. There is surface wear in places including age-related marks, knocks and scratches throughout the piece. Historic wear and loss to the potboard, particularly to the back right hand corner but this does not detract from the overall appeal of the piece. There is evidence of historic woodworm, as to be expected with a piece of this age. However, this has long gone and has been treated as a precaution. Small block repair to the top, but does not detract from overall appeal. Slight bowing to the shelves and one of the broad back boards. Historic repair to one of the outswept feet of the dresser rack but The drawers run smoothly and the dresser base is structurally solid and sturdy throughout. Overall a very decorative and useful example with lovely colour and patina.
