French vintage bamboo and rattan chest of drawers 1970s
Title: French Vintage Bamboo and Rattan Chest of Drawers, 1970s. Description: Authentic 1970s French vintage four-drawer chest crafted from natural bamboo and woven rattan. Featuring a decorative gallery rail top and a warm honey-amber patina, this versatile piece works effortlessly as a bedroom tallboy, a hallway organizer, or a charming nursery storage unit. The chest has undergone a careful, sympathetic restoration designed to preserve 100% of its original natural materials. The structure has been thoroughly cleaned and checked for stability, while the woven rattan panels were reshaped and tightened using a traditional water-based technique so the drawers slide smoothly and retain their original form. To protect the natural fibres, the piece has been sealed with a non-toxic, odourless, water-based gloss finish. This eco-friendly coating highlights the rich natural grain of the rattan while making the surface water-resistant, wipeable, and suitable for everyday family life, including children's bedrooms or conservatories. Dimensions: Height: 95.5 cm. Width: 45 cm. Depth: 35 cm. Condition: Very good restored vintage condition. The rattan weave is tight and intact, the frame is sturdy, and the finish is clean and ready for immediate use. As an authentic mid-century piece, it is best suited for gentle, everyday domestic use rather than heavy overloading.
