Read more1930’s Large Plan Chest Drawers in Solid Oak
£0FREE Ground Floor delivery on this item within approximately 130 miles of Cambridgeshire. Further afield locations will incur a charge to send via couriers.
A simply stunning and unusual chest of large Plan drawers in heavy solid oak. The chest dates to around the early 1930’s and came to us from a school in Liverpool, where it had been owned from new. The chest is unusual that the width f the drawers are split. The normal configuration is to have full width drawers for A1 or A0 paper storage; be it plans, architect drawings, engineering diagrams etc. This chest was used as document storage by the school. It is a very heavy piece, hand made from solid oak, that has aged and coloured perfectly. All handles are original and also perfectly aged. The drawers graduate in depth from top to bottom. We think the piece now offers lots of possibilities as drawers, a TV stand, or a superb kitchen island?
We adore the design, colour and size of the chest. Difficult to find in this condition.

Width: 121.5cm
Height: 86.5 cm

Read more10 Drawer Architect / Plan Chest by Esavian (ESA)
£0FREE delivery on this item within approximately 130 miles of Cambridgeshire. Further afield locations will incur a charge to send via couriers.
An exceptional and hard to find full 10 drawer Architect/ Plan chest of drawers designed and produced by Esavian/ ESA. Esavian/ ESA were more known for working with James Leonard and designing some fantastic school furniture in the 1950’s and 60’s. We have sold many ESA drawers, gym benches, desks and chairs but we very rarely come across a full chest of plan drawers by them before. This means Esavian designed and produced the drawers, and they were headed for RAF Staverton to hold maps, aircraft drawings and the likes.
The drawers date to the 1960’s and have been fully refurbished. All of the drawers run freely and are free from any chips or the usual marks. Internally the drawers are very clean. All in all a pretty rare and gorgeous piece!
We adore the design, colour and size of the chest. A very rare find in this condition. The chest splits in to two sections for transportation and siting.

Read moreVintage Architect Drawers / Coffee Table
£0FREE delivery on this item within approximately 130 miles of Cambridgeshire. Further afield locations will incur a surcharge to send via couriers.
A superb large vintage plan chest or coffee table. This piece came to us directly from a small architecture company in Lincolnshire, where it had been used in the office for storing the architectural drawings. The drawers are large but run freely and are very clean inside. We think it would make a perfect coffee table with a difference, or a very stylish TV Stand. The front, back and sides are all in a nicely finished state so that if the drawers were to be used as coffee table in the middle of a room, it would look good from all angles.
