1930’s Large Plan Chest Drawers in Solid Oak
£0
FREE 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.
Dimensions:
Width: 121.5cm
Height: 86.5 cm
Depth: 90.5 cm (excluding handle protrusions)
Internal drawers dimensions are: 52cm wide, 81.5cm front to back, graduating heights from 8cm to 17.5cm

£0FREE Delivery on this time within approximately 10 working days. More remote and rural areas will incur a charge.
An early 20th Century hardwood side table hand carved with elephants head and trunks as legs. A well constructed table with an unusual but vey popular style. Most probably carved in South East Asia originally, it has a beautifully aged ebonised colouring with original wood colour showing through in patches. Perfect patination from use. The top has splits where the original top was formed from planks rather than one solid piece of timber, but the table is solid and free from wobbles. We love it exactly as it is, in totally original condition, so we did not want to repair or restore and lose the gorgeous patina. All three elephants heads have both trunks in tact.
We think this is now a highly desirable and superbly stylish piece that would add a touch of chic to a variety of rooms/ interiors. It could be used as a side table for drinks, books, magazines etc or a lamp table or even a plant stand or towel table in the bathroom. A classic but very stylish piece.
Dimensions:
73.5cm High, 37cm Diameter top, max diameter approx 40cm at the widest point of the elephant heads.
