Description
Very long antique rustic pine chest of drawers, shop counter, hotel laundry base, with six large drawers, made around 1900 probably. Each drawer has its original big decorative brass handle with oak hand pull. There's an oak trim along the top of the front and one side. That side is panelled, the other being plain with no trim (would have been fitted against a wall). The drawers have a little wheel on the back of their bases; there's another wheel at the front of each runner, inside the carcass (one drawer has missing wheels). There's a plinth at the bottom, which we've added, using similarly coloured antique timber. We've waxed this everywhere but the top: happy to finish the job but you might want to oil or varnish it for water resistance (or we can..) This doesn't dismantle so make sure you can get it in! There's another one of these in the pipeline: identical but 2/3 the size with four drawers. Dimensions: 277cm x 63cm x 82cm high
declaration
Barnaby's of Battle has clarified that the Very Long Large Antique Pine Chest of Drawers Counter (LA554658) is genuinely of the period declared with the date/period of manufacture being 1900s
condition
Condition is pretty good structurally: it's solid and sound. We've put a new tongue and groove back on it, and tightened up the drawers where necessary. One drawer has had its base replaced in mdf at some point; this is the one with no wheels, though it still runs fine, as do all the drawers, except one which needs a slight lift to get it fully shut. Cosmetically there are various signs of a working life (we bought this from a hotel which was closing: it was still being used in their laundry): marks, scuffs and scratches etc, though nothing horrid. There's a split in the right hand end from shrinkage but it doesn't move (see pics). Old screw holes in the top, nail holes in the plinth. There are shadows on the drawer fronts where trims once went, likewise on the panelled end.
