A9082 - Ornate Restored Victorian Cedar Seven Drawer Chest. Circa 1870. Thoroughly restored and fitted with all new drawer runners, this stunning example from the 1800s features.
Solid Cedar construction.
Traditional hand French polish finish.
Seven solid and sturdy, as new functioning, hand-dovetailed drawers.
Spotlessly clean inside all drawers.
Original, mother-of pearl centred handles (Original Cedar screws).
Original brass escutcheon/keyhole covers.
Original drawer locks.
New drawer runners installed.
Replacement drawer stops (where required).
Turned Cedar legs fitted with anti-scratch pads.
Pristine external Cedar surfaces.
Large size with a generous storage capacity.
 
Overall an exceptionally well kept set of drawers. All drawers have been rebuilt (including refitted drawer bases), re-gued and re-nailed where required. They sit straight and flush and function seamlessly. The original internal drawer rails and guides have been re-guled and re-nailed/re-screwed. New hardwood overlays installed where required (large drawer rails). The solid Cedar plank top, sides and drawer fronts are in lovely condition, free from cracks, blemishes and significant dents. Surprisingly, the original Cedar shelves underneath each drawer are all still in place (designed to minimise dust falling between drawers). The original Cedar backboards have been renailed and are in great order also.
