Etsy - CoolVintageHomeStore Oak Welsh Dresser With Beautiful Patina
Description
An elegant oak dresser made in the Georgian style around the turn of the 20th century. Constructed from solid oak (no ply) it has a panelled back that also houses two glazed cupboards (with key). It has two deep, spacious oak lined drawers with dovetail joints, both are very clean inside. The shelves have beading strips to facilitate displaying plates etc, although it must be noted that there is a small 2cm piece missing from the end of the lower left hand strip (see detailed photo). There are some age-related marks of the top surface which have been there a long time, but have been well-polished over the years & form part of its present patina. The base has slender, sweeping 18th century style legs to the front, either side of a shaped apron while the rear legs are straight. There is also shaping to the frieze, below the top moulding. The copperised finish to the to the handles on both the drawers & the cupboards echo the style prevalent at the time of manufacture. The top is removable from the base unit for ease of transportation. There are no splits, breaks or repairs & everything is completely original; no attempt has been made to disguise any flaws. The dresser remains just as it was when purchased from the house deep in Mid Wales.
