£3,500.00Price

  • 170cm high x 120cm wide x 53cm deep

  • There are marks, knocks and scratches commensurate with age and use, including various pieces of moulding that have been detached and reaffixed or replaced. There is some lifting and warping to localised areas of veneer but this appears largely stabilised. This piece has been adapted from an escritoire by the removal of the fitted interior and insertion of the three slides. The drawer handles and rear feet are replacements. The front feet have some historic woodworm but they appear to retain structural integrity. The drawers run smoothly and the piece is solid and stable. There are three keys; one works the cupboard doors, one the drawers and there is a third, smaller key that perhaps worked the fitted interior that was removed during its conversion.
