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..”

declaration
Penderyn Antiques has clarified that the Antique Early 19th Century Oak Dresser Base (LA580837) is genuinely of the period declared with the date/period of manufacture being Early 19th Century
condition
Good antique condition, displaying the expected wear associated with over 200 years of use. The solid oak top has surface marks, small historic knocks, shrinkage splits and evidence of long-term use, all adding to its authentic character. The brass swan neck handles and pierced escutcheons appear to be later replacements in keeping with the period, while the cupboard doors retain their original sliding block locking mechanism. There are historic repairs and restorations commensurate with age, including repairs around the top edge and general wear to the interior of the cupboards. The drawers and cupboard doors operate smoothly, the dresser is structurally sound and sturdy, and it has developed a rich, warm patina throughout. Overall, a well-preserved and highly usable early 19th century dresser base ready for everyday use.
