18th Century Small Georgian Dresser Base (England, circa 1780)

£3,995.00

An Extremely Attractive Late 18th Century, Georgian Period, Oak Dresser Base, Of Relatively Small & Compact Proportions, Retaining Excpetional Rich Colour And Patina Throughout, Having Well Figured Top Over Three Drawers To Shaped Frieze, With Replacement Old Brass Pierced Plate Handles, Raised On Elegant Turned Upright Supports With Original Potboard Shelf Below.

An attractive dresser base of useful small size and therefore perfect for a wide ranging variety of spaces around the home, due to its narrow proportions amongst many other features. It is also of course very elegant and retains an exceptional colour and patina as a consequence of many years hard graft and use, combined with love and care.

There is very little damage to speak of, certainly nothing visually unappealing, or which causes a structural problem and although the brass handles are probably replacements they are old,  18th century themselves and actually sit very nicely on the piece indeed. They have clearly been in situ for a very long time.

As suggested by the name the original purpose of a potboard shelf was to store all manner of pots and pans. These pots and pans were often still wet, very heavy, or possibly still hot when placed back onto the storage shelf and this is the reason that we regularly find potboard shelves damaged beyond repair, or in rather ugly condition visually. No such problem with this particular piece however, it has a perfectly functioning and attractive potboard shelf.

As with all items which we offer for sale this dresser base has been inspected and attended to in our workshops by our trained antique furniture restorers, where it has recieved a natural wax polish to ensure it is ready for immediate placement within the home environment.

Circa 1780.
