A simply stunning mid to late 19th Century Victorian glazed bookcase with original glass, internal sliding bolts, lock and key and brass handles. It dates from around 1860 to 1880.

The shelves are easily adjustable or completely removable with the side support system allowing increments of approximately 2.5cm for each ‘step’.
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 colour scheme. The classic styling and flexible colour scheme will fit with most styles and colour palletes. A real statement piece!

Read moreSuperb Early 20th Century Kitchen Dresser in Hague Blue
£0FREE Two Man Shipping on this piece. More remote and rural locations will incur a charge. Due to the weight of this item, delivery will be to Ground Floor Only.
An exceptionally stylish and unique early 20th Century dresser. It originally dates from around 1910 to 1930 and retains all of its original features – such as the porcelain handles, the brass handles, the glass, the carved corbels, brass escutcheons and key. The dresser has been fully stripped and refinished in Farrow & Ball Hague Blue Estate Emulsion on the outside with Wevet eggshell for resilience on the internal cupboard top. Areas have been slightly distressed where natural wear would occur over the years. This gives a nod to its genuine antique authenticity and brings out the character of the design and carving work. The whole dresser has also received a final finish coat of clear wax for protection.
We adore all of the drawers with their original handles; very reminiscent of an Apothecary cabinet. Labels could be added to the drawers to enhance the features.
Dimensions: 186cm High, 125cm Max Width, 54.5cm Max Depth (top cornice)
Please note this is a very heavy piece requiring a dedicated two man delivery team. Delivery will be to ground floor only. Should you require delivery up or down any stairs, please contact us for a delivery quote.

Read moreSuperb Early Victorian Rustic Glazed Kitchen Dresser
£0FREE Shipping on this piece. More remote and rural locations will incur a charge.
A very stylish and unique 19th Century Victorian glazed dresser in old painted pine. It originally dates from around 1860 to 1880 and has been painted many years ago (we estimate the last paint to be 1920’s-30’s). It was originally a dresser/ linen cupboard but then later converted to a wardrobe with a hanging rail and hooks added. We glazed the doors and converted it back to a dresser as we think it has perfect rustic country style appeal and so much fantastic storage for a kitchen. The piece splits in to two sections for ease of transportation and siting. The bottom of the dresser has the most fantastic deep drawers for storing place mats, cutlery box, party games, towels, tea towels or whatever else you need.
Please note this is over 130 years old and obviously carries chips to the paint, old cracks etc. However, it is a very heavy and solid piece constructed from antique thick pitch pine throughout. 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. All marks are part of its history and add to the rustic appeal and original character of the piece. Perfectly imperfect!
Superb rustic chic charm.
Dimensions: 203cm High, 132.5cm Max Width, 56.5cm Max Depth (top cornice), Max internal storage depth of top section 45cm

A very stylish 19th Century Victorian glazed dresser / bookcase in original mahogany finish. It dates from around 1870 to 1890 and has original cabinetry, glass, upper section lock and key. The lower section has a secret serpentine drawer with two door cupboard below. The corbels are very well carved. The dresser is in original condition with some signs of old repairs and a few ‘dings’ here and there. It is good 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. The size is very good too. Not too huge and imposing but also offering plenty of stylish storage.
We think it would also make a fantastic and individual kitchen / diner cabinet or a bookcase/ dresser. The piece splits in to two sections for ease of transportation and siting.
Please note this is over 130 years old and does carry residual marks and damage from use, along with a couple of old repairs (done well) to the hinge area of the right door. 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. All marks are part of its history and add to the rustic appeal and original character of the piece. Perfectly imperfect!
Superb rustic chic charm.

Read moreOriginal Antique Victorian Dresser in F&B Railings
£0FREE Shipping on this item by 31st January.
An original Victorian dresser with glazed upper doors (original glass), two deep drawers and plenty of storage space in the bottom cupboard section. Classic Victorian dresser styling, constructed from pine throughout, with porcelain knobs to finish. The piece originally dates from circa 1870-1900 and does split in to the upper and lower sections for ease of transportation and moving in to the room of your choice. We refinished the piece in Farrow and Ball’s Railings to the exterior and Wevet internally. We left the shelves in their original pine finish for contrast and aesthetics, to give the piece a classic but contemporary finish.
We believe the dresser now has all the character and appeal of an original antique but brought right on trend in these beautifully classic colours. Period and Contemporary fused together fantastically.

184cm High, 130cm Wide, 45cm Deep
