A fantastic and fully refurbished 6 drawer Architect/ Plan chest of drawers. The drawers are presented in their original antique pitch pine and date to around the late 1940’s to mid 1950’s. The drawers are sized for A1 size drawings and came to us form an Artist’s studio in Buckingham. She also taught art classes in her studio and these drawers held the students’ pieces as they passed through their courses. The drawers are pine, along with the main framework. We fully sanded back and refinished the whole chest and drawers as they were in a mixed state of old very dark brown stain with lots of peeling. The top surface centre and the handles were repainted in Farrow & Ball Off Black, then clear waxed for protection. These chests are becoming very highly sought after and are rarely available in such beautiful restored condition. This set is a real treasure to look after and adore.
We love the design, colour and size of the chest. A very rare find in this condition.

Read moreRestored Mid Century Architect / Plan Chest by Abbess
£0FREE delivery on this item. Post codes far away from us (Cambridgeshire) will incur a charge to send via couriers.
An exceptional 6 drawer Architect/ Plan chest of drawers on original legs, by Abbess. These drawers came to us in a tired old brown stain, peeling away. They are completely original and pretty rare to have their original legs and base still present. We fully stripped away the old brown varnish, sanded the whole carcass, frame, drawers and handles. Then we refinished the piece in a sympathetic aged medium oak stain, with a satin sheen finish. All of the drawers run freely and are clean inside. Two of the drawers retain the Abbess stamp inside.
We think the colour and grain are now superb. The drawers make a fantastic kitchen island or of course artist drawers, drawers for collectors, a TV stand with a difference 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.
