Penderyn Antiques

Mid Glamorgan, UK

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..”

In good antique condition throughout with some signs of age. There is surface wear in places including age-related marks to the surface top, shelves and front. There a re stains to the shelves (pictured) and some loss to one of the wooden knobs (pictured), however, this does not affect the overall integrity of the oak dresser. The oak dresser should be fixed to a wall for extra support due to it’s size. Overall a great example of an antique early 19th Century South Wales oak dresser.
