An amazing desk in solid English oak, dating from 1939.

A stunning example of an original antique book case or drinks cabinet by Maple & Co.
Maple and Co was one the largest and most successful British furniture retailers and cabinet makers in the Late 19th Century, Victorian and Edwardian periods. They were well known for fine quality, craftsmanship and were specialists in copying old designs but bringing them up to date to the more modern trends. They produced many quality pieces of antique furniture in designs such as Hepplwhite and Chippendale but also were well known for their quality Arts & Crafts Furniture.
This beautiful piece is presented in perfectly aged mahogany with its original astragal glazed doors, glass, lock and key. The shelves are easily adjustable in height by moving the brass supports up or down within the unit. The bookcase is set on superbly styled solid mahogany ball and claw feet. Even the brass locking bolts and hinges are completely original and beautifully preserved.
We re-finished the back in Farrow & Ball Wevet eggshell. This gave the piece a contemporary facelift to bring it bang on trend for 2021. What a perfectly gorgeous gin cabinet? It would be very hard to find a better example than this.

Read moreMid Century Old School Gym Bench with 16 Baskets
£0FREE UK Mainland Shipping on this item. Some more remote and rural locations will incur a charge.
This gym bench dates to around the late 1950’s to early 1960’s. It is a heavy solid piece being surrounded in 23mm thick wood and having 16 shoe baskets. The shoe baskets are also nice and deep at 31cm, so they can easily accommodate large adult size footwear. SO much storage! We have also sold these to customers that want a different style TV Stand. A great idea too!
This bench is in super condition both in the solid framework and the galvanised metal shoes baskets. Most of the baskets get bent or broken over the years but this one is in really good, straight condition, with perfect aged patina to the metal work. We fully stripped and cleaned the piece, then re-fixed and re-glued all joints for safety. We also gently restored the wood to its original finish. It has all the original style and character but ready for another 60+ years of use.
These are very popular benches and we are finding it harder and harder to get them like this. Every time we manage to find one it flies out to another very happy customer. This one is unlike most due to being bigger and having lots more baskets.
A perfect way of tidying up a hallway or entrance whilst adding a real style statement.

Read more1960’s Vintage Filing Cabinet by Art Metal
£0FREE Shipping on this piece (some more remote and rural areas will attract a charge)
A great set of original vintage (c 1960-65) steel filing drawers by Art Metal (London, SW1). Most of these cabinets are by Roneo. Art Metal cabinets are much harder to find; especially in this condition with this finish. This set has the advantage of still having its original side rails for hanging suspension files. They are very rare to find in unscratched condition. The lock is present but there is no key present and the lock has been disabled, to prevent accidental locking of the drawers.
A very nice size for home or office. The cabinet and drawers have all been fully cleaned and the runners re-oiled. Plenty of mid Century industrial design and character. Industrial style and practicality all rolled in to one.

132cm High, 45cm Wide, 62cm Deep

A very unusual example of a mid century tall glazed cabinet by Minty of Oxford. Minty produced some really nice quality bookcases from the early 20th Century to the late 20th Century, usually in oak.

Read moreLarge Chest of Original Art Deco Drawers in Farrow & Ball Railings
£0FREE Delivery on this item. Some further afield and rural areas will incur a charge.
An original chest of generously proportioned and well made Art Deco drawers. The drawers date form around 1910-20 and are graduated in depth from top to bottom and come complete with their original and archetypal ornate Art Deco style handles. We fully stripped the chest and refinished in Farrow & Ball Railings. The iece was then gently distressed for character and decorative finish. Finally a finish layer of dark wax was applied for resilience and protection of the paintwork.
We love the colour and the fully finished effect. Transformed from dowdy ‘brown’ to a contemporary classic that will adapt and fit with a plethora of interior styles. The storage is very generous and all five drawers run easily and are very clean. This chest of drawers could be used in practically any room you needed them.
