Large Arts and Crafts Ash Chest of Drawers C1880
Here we have a wonderful Victorian Arts & Crafts ash chest of drawers C1880 possessing a lovely tone and grain by quality makers Maples of London stamped to the top hat drawer. Ash is similar in tone, grain and hardness to English oak - just as a pointer to those who may be wondering…
It’s a handsome piece with well shaped brass handles and reeded horizontal decoration to the 9 drawers, deep plinth, nicely angled top and handsome overall look.
Condition wise it's good – as mentioned the original brass handles are in situ, all the drawers are neat inside and the frame sits well with the piece being strong and sturdy. We have sensible day to day wear and marks but nothing particularly off putting or missing, also smells fine and is clean and ready to place.
