Description
Antique Edwardian cupboard with hanging wardrobe space above and two over two drawer chest of drawers below, in hard wood, walnut we think, made in the 1910s probably. Originally the top part was a linen press: a cupboard with tray-like drawers for bedding or tablecloths etc, but these have gone and been replaced with a hanging rail. The depth is just enough for a standard coat hanger and a light garment though jackets might have to go slightly at an angle or use a slightly smaller hanger. Original copper plated pressed steel handles. There's no key but the door latches shut. The top and base come apart for transport. Apologies for the blurred pics of the interior: I'll re do those asap.

declaration
Barnaby's of Battle has clarified that the Antique Linen Press Wardrobe with Chest of Drawers Base 1910s (LA481160) is genuinely of the period declared with the date/period of manufacture being 1910s
condition
Condition is pretty good: structurally it's sound. The doors and drawers all work nicely and aren't falling apart. The cornice at the very top (also removable) seems to be a later replacement but adapted from a similarly aged part. Cosmetically there are various bumps, chips and marks though nothing serious. Largest one is top right side of the cornice (see pics). Some paint remnants, mostly inside, where a foolish person had painted it in the past.
