Read moreRefurbished Mid Century A0 Size Architect / Plan Chest by Abbess
£1,295FREE ground floor delivery on this item within approximately 130 miles of Cambridgeshire. Further afield locations 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 matt black paint for the carcass and original handles with a clear satin finish varnish to the gorgeous oak finish.
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 gorgeous condition. These chests are never with us long and we completely understand why.
The chest does split in two for transportation and the legs/ base can also be screwed off, should you need to. The drawers can easily be removed to help with moving/ delivering/ siting in the room of your choice.

Read more1950’s Rosewood Effect Filing Cabinet in Steel by Art Metal
£0FREE Ground Floor Shipping on this piece within approximately 130 miles of Cambridgeshire. Further afield areas will incur a surcharge to send via couriers. The item may be shipped on a pallet to your kerb side only (postcode dependent).
A pretty rare and unusual 1950’s steel filing cabinet produced by Art Metal. These original vintage filing cabinets are vary hard to find in this original condition and are therefore highly sought after. The cabinets are made from steel but then painted to give a rosewood effect to the exterior. All of the paintwork and handles are original and in very good condition for the age. With the superbly aged brass handles and label holders we estimate that it dates to around the mid 1950’s.
All of the four drawers are exceptionally clean inside. Very good original condition for its age and much rarer than most of the vintage filing cabinets made by Roneo, Stor and Vickers.

132cm High, 37.5cm Wide, 72.5cm Deep

Read moreRefurbished 5 Drawer Architect / Plan Chest from Staverton 1966
£0FREE delivery on this item within approximately 130 miles of Cambridgeshire. Further afield locations will incur a charge to send via couriers.
A gorgeous 5 drawer Architect/ Plan chest of drawers from Staverton (stamped and dated Feb 1966). The carcass and drawers are all original but we refinished them in black, with a clear wax for protection. This really makes the piece pop as the colour contrast beautifully with the refinished beech drawers. A new top was needed as the original one was way beyond repair. 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. Use it now as a coffee table, a TV stand, art drawers, poster drawers etc. You choose 🙂
