Expansive & very impressive vintage piece of furniture. Large chest featuring a generous surface area and four spacious drawers, exuding character and a storied past.
The top allows for additional workspace, and not restricting you to just having drawer functionality. This is a good feature of this beauty. It’s large, so please measure.
The visible signs of use on this character piece add so much charm, almost making it perfect.
With its solid construction dating back decades, it serves as a versatile piece suitable for architectural drawings, hobby rooms, or sewing rooms, adding both functionality and historical charm to any space. Use in a large kitchen, restaurant etc. If you have the space the possibilities are endless!
This chest is not just a piece of furniture; it's a statement of craftsmanship and sophistication. With its four spacious drawers, it offers ample storage for various items, keeping your space organized and clutter-free. The addition of castor wheels enhances its practicality, allowing for easy mobility. One wheel replaced with wood, still functional. We have deliberately not restored this unit (as it should not be), however it has been cleaned, oiled and the drawers waxed.

Note/Disclaimer:
Our images form part of the item/s description. Although all effort is made to refurbish our furniture to represent its original state best, it must be noted that most of the items we source date from the 1950s to the late 1970s. For this reason and although restored, signs of their vintage condition & age might still be visible. We will typically point out any visible/notable concerns. Take note of all photos or view the item in-store prior to purchasing.
As with most Mid-Century pieces, it is a good combination of solid wood and a high-quality wood veneer. The history of veneer on furniture is a long and honorable tradition, and it depends on the veneer's artistry, condition, and thickness. The quality of the veneer was long-lasting; for this reason, it can be retouched or sanded and refinished.
