Read moreFine Quality 1930’s Heavy Tiger Oak Desk Top Chest
£0FREE UK Delivery on this item via ParcelForce.
A stunning desk top chest/ drawers of very high quality. The chest is exceptional in so many ways. Firstly it was Elkington & Co. of renowned quality silver and electroplate manufacture (established in Birmingham then opened at 22 Regent Street, London in 1913). To have a quality oak chest with their label on is rare. The quality of the radial cut (Tiger) English oak is exceptional; as are the recessed brass handles to the drawer fronts and both sides. Heavy oak and solid quality brassware make this a chest of quality manufacture and weight. The chest weighs around 12kgs. The design is also a rare example. Styled as a Wellington chest with two front flaps that encase the drawers and become locked in to place by the lock and key that also locks to the top. Even the front wooden banding design work is still all in tact and of very fine order.
The drawers inners and top have all been later lined in an aubergine coloured crushed velvet. Professionally done, though we do not know by who or when. We very rarely see chests of this size, design and quality – especially with a very well known sellers label still present. Could it be a truly special jewellery box?
A true antique investment that should become a treasured family heirloom.
