Read more1950’s Double Pedestal Teachers Desk in Light Oak by Abbess
£0FREE Delivery on this desk. Some more remote and rural areas will incur a charge.
An excellent example of the ever popular Abbess double pedestal desk in Oak. These are often referred to as Teacher’s desks. This one dates from around the 1950’s and is a superb colour and size. Two drawers to both pedestals offering lost of really useful storage. The top drawer of the right hand pedestal has a working lock and two keys.
A great size offering a generous fully functioning desk but not too large to be difficult to position or accommodate. The colour and condition are exactly right for a very stylish work/ study desk. There are a few small patches of old wear on the top of the desk. Purely cosmetic but we have photographed to show the true condition.
We have sold a number of these Abbess desks and they never hang around for long. Especially not in this colour and condition.

153cm Wide, 74cm Deep, 76cm High

Read moreEarly 20th Century Reclining Dentists Chair by C J Plucknett, London W1
£0FREE Shipping on this item. Some more remote and rural locations will incur a charge.
This is a very stylish and rare early 20th Century reclining dentists chair in solid oak. It dates from the 1900’s to late 1920’s and was produced and distributed by C J Plucknett of Poland Street, London W1 (c1880-1982). C J Plucknett were better known for their fine silver ware (with a globally recognised makers stamp CJP) and also producers of fine jewellery and watches. They later became involved in the manufacture and supply of dental equipment. No that is what is called ‘diversification’?!
The chair is very well constructed form quality English oak with solid joints and small details showing the quality of handmade construction. Details such as the brass brackets on the inside of the arms to prevent any splitting of the framework from the reclining of the chair in and out of the reclining grooves. The quality and grade of leather is also very high end and another mark of the quality, as is the leather faced upholstery tacks.
We think it now makes a perfect statement chair, with a great back story and provenance. A classic antique piece with timeless clean lines that will certainly appreciate with time.
Dimensions:
63cm Maximum Width (outside arm to outside arm), 91cm Maximum Back Height, 77cm Maximum Depth (front of arms to very back of arms)
42cm Seat Height, 43cm Seat Depth, 51cm Seat Width

Read moreExceptional Mid Century Architect / Plan Chest 9 Drawer by Abbess
£0FREE delivery on this item. Post codes far away from us (Cambridgeshire) will incur a charge to send via couriers.
An exceptional full 9 drawer Architect/ Plan chest of drawers by Abbess. These drawers came to us from the North o f Scotland Agriculture College in Aberdeen. They sat in the same spot since the early 1950’s. Inside the drawers were original drawings and plans from the early 1950’s, along with a handwritten Visitors book, dating back to 1953. All of this provenance will be included within the sale. We have never seen a more original Abbess plan chest in such superb condition. All of the drawers run freely and are free from any chips or the usual marks. The Abbess makers label is still present, as is the stamp inside one of the drawers.
The colour and grain are superb. Made from oak they have been stained (from new) in a rich golden brown walnut colour, that has just got better and better over the decades. This chest splits in to three sections (plus a base made later) for easier transportation and positioning in to the room of your choice. Immense storage in stunning style and exceptional condition. These chests are never with us long. We have not seen a better example of an Abbess plan chest than this one.
