£0FREE delivery on this item within approximately 130 miles of Cambridgeshire. Further afield locations will incur a surcharge to send via couriers.
A superb original mid Century plan chest on removable legs. This piece came to us directly from a small engineering firm in Lancashire where it had been all of its life. The drawers sit on their original legs which are easily removed for transportation and positioning. The legs are attached by bolts and wing nuts. The three drawers are all free running. We adore the colour and honesty of this piece. Used exactly what it was originally made for, holding hand drawn large scale drawings. Incredibly popular pieces now whether it be for storing artwork, collections, magazines, as a TV stand etc etc.
We sell numerous plan chests/ architect drawers and we doubt this will be with us for long!

Read moreRestored Mid Century Architect / Plan Chest in African Teak
£0FREE Ground Floor delivery on this item within approximately 130 miles of Cambridgeshire. Locations further afield will incur a charge to send via couriers.
An exceptional 6 drawer Architect/ Plan chest of drawers presented in African Teak. These drawers came to us in a tired old brown stain, peeling away. They are completely original and very rare.. We fully stripped away the old brown varnish, sanded the whole carcass, frame, drawers and handles. Then we refinished the piece in Osmo Oil Clear Satin finish.
We think the colour and grain are now superb and pretty exceptional. The height of these drawers would make make a fantastic TV Stand, or of course artist drawers, drawers for collectors, etc etc. Use them exactly where you need them. Immense storage in stunning style and exceptional condition. These chests are never with us long and we completely understand why.
Please note that the chest does not split for transportation. It comes as one piece so please check all doorways and access points carefully, before purchasing. The drawers can easily be removed to help with moving/ delivering/ siting in the room of your choice.
