Object Description
An Extremely Attractive And Very Good Quality Mid 19th Century Walnut, and Burr Walnut, Miniature Childs Wellington Chest, Having Well Figured Top And Sides, Over Superbly Figured Burr Walnut Drawers, With Original Turned Wooden Knobs, Flanked By Inlaid Pilasters, One Locking, Raised On Original Plinth Below.
Childs size examples of the typical wellington chest of drawers are generally much rarer to find than their full size counterparts, particularly ones like this which are quite a bit nicer than the norm.
This is constructed from a very high grade of highly figured, rich walnut which retains an exceptional colour and patina and also the secondary timbers used are of the highest quality, with mahogany drawer linings for example.
This is an incredibly useful, functional and practical piece of furniture around the modern home of course, absolutely perfect for a whole host of places, including as a coffee table beside a settee or chair, as a bedside table, or even as an additional storage piece in a bedroom or office, offering great solutions.
The item comes with working lock and key and just like all the items which we offer for sale it has been attended to in our workshops, by our highly skilled and trained, traditional antique furniture restorers, where it has received a general clean and tidy plus natural beeswax polish to ensure it is ready for immediate use once sold.
