Description
A rather lovely and unique painted pine chest of drawers from the famous Portmeirion Estate, North Wales, with provenance.
Featuring two over three drawers with drop handles, bold geometric moulding with rope twist detailing and a painted finish. Standing on bracket feet.
The beautiful village of Portmeirion was built by Welsh architect Clough Williams-Ellis, and this once plain chest was decorated in true Clough Williams-Ellis style ("Cloughed - up") during the 1930s. The term "Cloughed - up" is an invented term to describe something that has been altered or modified - with the attention to aesthetic detail - by Clough Williams-Ellis.
