Omschrijving
Attractive antique Victorian Arts & Crafts carved walnut dressing table.
A lovely Victorian walnut dressing table. We date this dressing table to around the late 19th century.
The dressing table is of a twin pedestal design, with each pedestal sitting on four decorative bun feet with brass gliders.
The dressing table is provided with a large, oblong, front to back swivelling mirror. The mirror glass is thick and bevelled and is showing some signs of foxing mostly to the top centre. The mirror frame features a decorative stepped edge with protruding corners.
The mirror is supported on two side supports which comprise of a top shelf, over a bottom shelf, over two small glove drawers. The drawers are fitted with attractive drop loop handles mounted on decorative Arts & Crafts brass backplates, and the top shelves are supported by well turned supports and feature well turned finials.
The main table consists of a central long drawer, flanked either side by a short drawer over a side hinged door cupboard. All the drawer fronts have been veneered with well matched finely figured walnut. The drawers are fitted with matching handles to the glove drawers and feature decorative Arts & Crafts relief carved detail to the central panels.
The cupboard doors also feature decorative relief carved detail on the recessed central panels, and are framed with matching stepped detail to the mirror frame.
Both doors are fitted with working locks (key supplied). The interior of the left is fitted with a fixed retention panel, and the right is fitted with a fixed position, removable wood shelf.
The dressing chest has a height of 61" (155cm) (including mirror), a table height of 30.5" (78cm), a width of 55" (140cm) and a depth of 24" (61cm).
This lovely antique Victorian Arts & Crafts walnut dressing table remains in very good solid condition with only very minor surface markings commensurate with age and usage, including a fair number of minor indentations to the top surface. One of the rear legs is also missing a small piece of decorative beading.
This remains a very stylish and elegant Victorian Arts & Crafts walnut dressing table which will continue to provide good service for many years to come.
