ANTIQUE HARRIS & LEBUS ART NOUVEAU SOLID OAK DRESSING TABLE / CHEST

£ 145

THIS IS AN ANTIQUE SOLID OAK DRESSING TABLE FROM THE 1900s. IT IS A GREAT ART NOUVEAU PIECE, A USEFUL ITEM FOR THE HOME. IT HAS A PATENT LABEL FOR 1904. THE HANDLES ARE ORIGINAL. IT HAS A MIRROR ON THE TOP, WITH DRAWERS BELOW. THE MIRROR IS VERY WORN.

IT HAS MINOR WEAR AND TEAR. STRONG AND STURDY,  FADED ON THE TOP. IN AVERAGE CONDITION. GOOD QUALITY, WELL MADE, SOLID OAK. IT HAS BEEN STORED IN AN OUTBUILDING AND HAS A SLIGHT DAMP SMELL.

THIS LOOKS OK AS IT IS, BUT COULD EASILY BE STRIPPED OR PAINTED. PLEASE SEEK ADVICE BEFORE STRIPPING OLD PAINT AND USE THE CORRECT SAFETY EQUIPMENT. IT WOULD LOOK GREAT PAINTED IN A CONTEMPORY COLOUR TO GIVE IT A STYLISH NEW LOOK. IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT TALL FURNITURE SHOULD BE SAFELY SECURED TO THE WALL WITH SCREWS / BRACKETS FOR SAFETY.
