Description
Antique Victorian dresser base, hall cupboard, chiffonier etc made from light coloured oak in the 1890s probably. Two doors with shelf inside; two drawers above with fabulous brass drop handles (check the man's face in the drop..). On the top is a removable, folding section with two shelves supported on turned, fluted pillars and brackets. The lower shelf lifts out of its metal holders, the sides hinge inward and the top hinges down. If you don't want the top on, the base makes for a perfectly acceptable cupboard base, but it has two locating holes for the top, at the back, and some paler marks where it sits. Dimensions: 118cm x 62cm x 154cm high (base height 90cm)

condition
Condition is pretty good structurally: it's solid and rather heavy. The doors and drawers work fine; there's a key in the door lock but it's there by way of a handle; it doesn't operate the lock which I believe needs a new spring. The door stays shut though and the left one bolts from inside. Cosmetically there are lots of bumps, scuffs, marks and scrapes etc and a generally worn look which I think is great; so much so that I haven't waxed it or anything. This is for sound aesthetic principles, not laziness how dare you. You can do all that if you like: the price reflects this.
