Another stunning example dating around the 1870s. Highly functional with new hardwood drawer runners installed to all drawers (except the two small top right-side drawers - not required). The drawers are structurally excellent, lay perfectly straight and flush within the drawer cavities, very clean inside and function faultlessly (same as new). The bottom drawer has been rebuilt and fitted with a new base (non-original) covered with a woodgrain liner. The external Cedar surfaces have no significant dents or imperfections, and the original backboards are complete and well secured.
