£0FREE Shipping on this item within approximately 130 miles of Cambridgeshire. Further afield areas will incur a surcharge to send via couriers.
A beautifully designed chest of four drawers. This piece was designed by Alfred Cox and hand made in the Alfred Cox furniture factory predominantly for sale via Heals of London. They have beautiful quarter drawn Australian walnut grain, reflective of the quality of timber used. We adore the grain, the lines and particularly the legs and base. The drawers are all free running and have very clean internals. They are gradated in depth from top to bottom and retain all of their original bespoke handles, from solid walnut.
These Alfred Cox pieces are rapidly becoming a 60’s design classic and can only increase in value if looked after well. We have the matching dressing table available too, should you want a matching suite.

Width 87cm, Height 95.5cm, Depth 48cm (excludes handles protrusion)

Read moreEarly 20th Century Oak Chest of Drawers by Waring and Gillow
£0FREE ground floor shipping on this item within approximately 130 miles of Cambridgeshire. More remote and rural areas will incur a charge.
A beautiful large chest of two over three graduated drawers in oak, dating from around 1920 to mid 1930’s. They were produced by the world renowned Gillows of Lancaster and London, also known as Gillow & Co., an English furniture making firm based in Lancaster, Lancashire, and in London. It was founded in Lancaster in about 1730 by Robert Gillow (1704–1772).[1]
Gillows was owned by the family until 1814 when it was taken over by Redmayne, Whiteside, and Ferguson; they continued to use the Gillow name. Gillows furniture was a byword for quality, and other designers used Gillows to manufacture their furniture. Gillows furniture is referred to by Jane Austen, Thackeray and the first Lord Lytton, and in one of Gilbert and Sullivan‘s comic operas.[3][a] In 1903 Gillows merged with Warings of Liverpool to become Waring and Gillow.
There are the tell tell signs of Waring & Gillow quality production throughout. The chest of drawers are finished in quarter drawn oak with beautiful swan neck brass handles attached to the drawers. The brass locks attached to the two top drawers are also stamped with Waring & Gillow. All five drawers are very clean inside and of sound and solid construction. Each drawer gets deeper from top to bottom with a very impressive deep bottom drawer that would have traditionally been used for storing blankets, bed throws etc. Now it is perfect for those chunky knit jumpers too!
A truly beautiful and unique piece of furniture ready for a new owner to treasure.

All of the handles are the original quality glass handles, free form chips and are beautifully designed. Originally the top would have been used for a water bowl and jug for washing.
