A tall and elegant 1930’s glazed dresser / bookcase with original glass. It dates from around the late 1920’s to mid 1930’s. We fully stripped the piece and refinished it in original Farrow & Ball paint – Off Black Estate Emulsion with a clear coat of wax for protection and resilience to the exterior; with School House White Eggshell to the top internal section. The piece now offers all of the beautiful style and originality of an antique dresser but brought bang on trend with a superbly classic colour scheme. The shelves in the upper section are easily height adjustable in circa 5cm increments. The piece is styled with two shelves but does have an extra 3rd shelf that will be sent on delivery. The lower cupboard offers very useful additional hidden storage, for the necessary but things that aren’t so great to look at. Although the piece has been fully refinished please expect some residual cosmetic marks and minor issues due to the dresser being an original antique; not a new piece.

Read moreEarly Georgian Open Bookcase in Farrow & Ball Railings
£0FREE Ground Floor Shipping on this piece generally within 10 working days. More remote and rural locations will incur a charge.
A simply stunning 19h Century Georgian open bookcase/ dresser. It dates from around 1840 to 1860 but it came to us in a dreadful sorry state. We fully stripped the piece and refinished it in original Farrow & Ball paint – Railings to the exterior with a clear wax for finish and protection. We also restored the interior to its gorgeous natural wood finish and then applied a Matt varnish finish for protection too. The shelves are easily adjustable or completely removable with the side support system allowing you to set your preferred distancing between the shelves. We adore the carved columns to the sides of the top section and also how rich and deep the old Georgian timber interior is. Please bear in mind that this piece is around 160-180 years old. There are old repairs and cosmetic scars that are still evident. We repaired and removed the main ones but we always like to show the true authenticity of the piece and not make it ‘perfect’.
The piece now offers all of the beautiful style and quality of an original antique bookcase but brought bang on trend with a superbly classic refinish. The classic styling and flexible colour scheme will fit with most styles and colour palletes. A real statement piece!
Dimensions: 230cm High, 111cm Max Width, 49cm Max Depth
Please double check your ceiling height to make sure the room can accommodate the height of this tall piece.
Delivery will be to ground floor only. Should you require delivery to an upstairs room please contact us to check delivery costs.

Read moreWaring & Gillow Dresser in Farrow & Ball Off Black
£0FREE Ground floor two man delivery with this piece. Further afield, remote or rural locations will incur a surcharge.
A Victorian styled English Dresser with glazed doors by Waring & Gillow. Waring & Gillow were formed in 1897 by merging Gillows of Lancaster with Warings of Liverpool. Waring’s of Liverpool was founded by John Waring, who arrived in the city from Belfast in 1835 and established a wholesale cabinet making business. He was succeeded by his son Samuel James Waring who rapidly expanded the business during the 1880s, furnishing hotels and public buildings throughout Europe. He also founded Waring-White Building Company which built the Liverpool Corn Exchange, Selfridge’s department store and the Ritz Hotel.
We estimate this piece was originally produced in the 1980’s in the Victorian style. It has a quality weight and feel to it, originally finished in Cherry veneer. Fantastically simple in it’s lines and design but of impressive stature. Even the glass has a quality weight and very nicely finished bevel edges. The dresser will add real presence to a room and offer lots of space for storage and display. The simple lines and colour scheme will allow the piece to blend with many design themes from Traditional to Contemporary. The dresser has been repainted in Farrow and Ball’s Off Black to the exterior and dark waxed for finish and protection. The finish nods to the antique heritage of its design and style. The internal sections of the dresser were in such good condition we left the natural colour of the cherry to shine through and complement the exterior colour.
With adjustable shelves to both sections and a free running serpentine drawer it now offers lots of very flexible and useful storage space – but in a beautiful package.
The top section is removable for transportation and siting in to the room of your choice.
Dimensions:
214cm High, 118cm Max width (top cornice), 47.5cm Max Depth (bottom section)
Upper section is 101cm wide (main body), 35cm deep
