Read moreAntique Victorian Glazed Dresser / Bookcase
£0FREE Shipping on this piece. More remote and rural locations will incur a charge.
A beautiful late 19th Century Victorian glazed dresser / bookcase in original mahogany finish. It dates from around 1890 to 1900 and has completely original cabinetry, glass, and height adjustable shelves. The dresser is in very good original condition for its age with all joints solid and all four doors opening freely on their original hinges. We fully cleaned and oiled the original exterior finish then repainted the top internal with Farrow & Ball Wevet colour paint. This has given the piece the perfect mix of antique, rustic and contemporary. It is very stylish, subtle in design and very flexible in the colours – to match a vast array of room palletes.
We think it would make a fantastic and individual kitchen / diner cabinet. However, it could also be a bathroom cabinet, bookcase, display cabinet etc. The piece splits in to two sections for ease of transportation and siting.
Please note this is over 120 years old and does carry some residual marks and damage from use. We have photographed everything to try and show its true condition, so please examine the photographs closely and just ask, should you need more photographs or a detailed condition report.
Superb rustic chic charm.

A fantastic mid century stacking bookcase by Simplex. The cabinetry is in the best colour – named ‘Light Oak’ by Simplex. The three sections are graduated in depth and height. The middle section also has a removable or height adjustable middle shelf. Easily adjusted by moving the shelf support pegs up or down. Each section stacks on the one below and fasten with a simple wooden turn locking mechanism (apart from the top section). It is in excellent original condition. All doors are the original sliding glass.

So much storage that was full to the seams of books. It can now be styled exactly as you wish. A piece in this good condition with such clean lines is so flexible and so desirable. A real vintage gem!
Clean lines and mid century styling that makes a real statement. A beautiful quality piece that will only appreciate in value if looked after.

Read moreEarly 20th Century Headmaster’s Bookcase / Dresser by T.Simpson & Sons
£0FREE Shipping on this piece. More remote and rural locations will incur a charge.
A truly stunning early 20th Century glazed bookcase / dresser in perfectly aged mahogany. It dates from around the early 1900’s to 1920 and has completely original cabinetry, glass, internal brass hardware and stunning handles. The bookcase originally came from a Headmaster’s office in Halifax, West Yorkshire. It was bought by a traveling salesman and has been owned for the last 50 years by the same family. The dresser is in excellent original condition for its age with all joints solid. The brass ware is amongst the best we have come across. Each door handle knob turns to release its catch. Unusual for a bookcase, and a sign of the quality of manufacture and cost when produced.
The piece was likely commissioned for the Headmaster by T.Simpson & Sons of Halifax. Simpson & Sons is a well know maker and pieces by their hands now command very high prices. It has one significant cosmetic point to note. A scratch on the upper section of the bottom cupboard. Purely cosmetic and could be filled and polished out, should you wish.
We think it makes a fantastic dresser but could equally be a sunning kitchen/ diner cabinet for glasses, crockery etc.
It des split in to two sections for delivery and transport but will require a dedicated two man delivery team.
Dimensions: 211cm High, 137.5cm Max Width, 52cm Max Depth (bottom), 36.5cm Max Depth top section (at the top cornice)
