A Charming Mid 18th Century Oak Dresser Base, Or Small Sideboard, Of Unusually Small Proportions And Rich Colour Throughout, Having Well Figured Rectangular Plank Top, Over Two Drawers With Replacement Old Brass Handles And Elegantly Shaped Frieze, Raised On Chamfered Square Upright Supports, With Original Potboard Shelf Below.

This delightful little dresser base is a particularly appealing example of its type, not least because of its unusually small proportions, which make it incredibly versatile and suitable for a wide variety of locations around the home. The oak retains a lovely rich, warm colour and surface, with plenty of character and charm throughout.

The original potboard shelf provides useful additional storage or display space, whilst the two drawers offer practical storage for smaller everyday items. As one would expect from a piece of this age, there are various old marks, scuffs, stains and minor imperfections throughout, all of which are entirely in keeping with its age and character.

As with all items which we offer for sale, this dresser base has been attended to in our workshops, where it has been carefully checked over, sympathetically restored where necessary using traditional methods, and finished with an appropriate wax polish. It is now ready to be placed straight into the home and enjoyed, whilst being put to good use of course.
