Billy Hunt and Co

Billy Hunt is located on a large Victorian farm just a short country drive from the Rangemore village, a designated conservation area, which was built by Michael Thomas Bass in the 1850s to house the Bass Rangemore Estate workers consisting mainly of Victorian redbrick cottages and the occasional barn.
Our home is a classic Victorian designed and well equipped late 19th century 2 story red brick built barn of some 4000 sq feet nestled in classic English countryside, which enjoyed a careful full renovation in 2000. The estate still benefits being managed in the traditional manner with an Estate Manger, estate carpenter, gardeners etc. A rather delightful place to have as our work space.
Martina, there is no Billy at Billy hunt, has led the team since 2103 and is an interior designer qualified from The Inchbald School of Design London whose previous working life included such clients as Vertu, Aston Martin and Johnnie Walker to name a few.
We always endeavor to offer a careful selection of chosen pieces from the British Isles ranging from 1800 to 1990 with makers such as Heal’s, Gillows, Pieff, Howard, Younger, Gomme, Archie Shine to name a few. Worth remembering, we are a business and as such we purchase what our clients desire alongside what we enjoy. Our pieces are usually ready for placing, with the option of professional reupholstery on seating if you desire - please see our upholstery page. We prefer to keep our pricing intelligent, knowledgeable, current and sensible, so no silly over inflated price tags to give you mouth watering discounts like some in our field seem to prefer…
Our extensive client base covers the celebrated, international clients, interior designers, film companies and ladies and gentlemen like us who enjoy our professional, skilled, friendly and knowledgeable approach.

Description
A rather gorgeous and long Arts & Crafts Yorkshire School chest with the lovely hand crafted adzed finish rippling over all sides including the back. Not seen one of such scale for a long while and this one was very likely used to store boots and shoes.
This lovely piece possesses all the right attributes that you would expect - we have the right amount of wear and historic marks, super wear to the top with a lighting of the oak , proper joints, great shape to the feet and in all a highly attractive chest seldom seen in the market these days.
As mentioned, the condition is about right - some wear to the thick solid oak, the top sits right with strong hinges and the worn inside shows its life, likely shoes or maybe logs. We have carefully cleaned the chest so it's ready for placing. Not surprising that it's wonderfully weighty.
A lovely piece perfect for a period or modern home.
When purchasing from us we include delivery in the purchase price which is based on a one person delivery for England and Wales. Please call or email for quotes to Scotland, Northern Ireland, The Isles and for Worldwide shipping. Please see our delivery page for details.
