English dressing table

This Victorian chest of drawers in solid pine embodies the understated elegance of the English cottage from the late 19th century. Its generous silhouette, three drawers, and honey patina warmed by time make it a characterful piece, equally at home in a wabi-sabi bedroom or a chic country interior. Materials: structure and facades entirely made of solid pine, with a natural golden patina acquired over the decades. Original turned wooden knob handles. Antique metal escutcheon locks preserved in place (without key). Features: this Victorian chest of drawers is centred around three drawers. Its straight bracket feet, turned wooden knob handles, and visible escutcheon locks are typical of rustic English Victorian carpentry. The small (original) turned column mirror placed on top is a matching period accessory (table psyché or “dressing mirror”); it tilts. The construction is robust, with no veneer: solid pine throughout. The whole exudes that sought-after wabi-sabi quality — imperfect, authentic, alive. Renovation: the English chest of drawers has been very lightly sanded to remove the larger stains and clean it without stripping away its patina and traces of life, which give it all its charm. It has also been carefully cleaned and then protected with a clear wax. Dimensions: L85 X D45.5 X H78. Mirror height: 64. Total height with mirror: 142. Drawers: L72 X H14. A characterful chest of drawers for lovers of authentic English furniture, to be integrated into a bedroom, hallway, or your living room for a timeless cottage touch.
