A George III Oak Open Dresser, late 18th century, the rack with bold dentil cornice above a wavy shaped frieze, with fixed shelves flanked by two moulded cupboard doors, the base with three deep drawers, on fluted forelegs joined by a potboard, 179cm by 48cm by 195cm

Sold for £750
Estimated at £800 - £1,200


 

Reasonable colour and condition with the exception of the top which has a gap in the boards. There is also a further split (see images). Small fault to the dentil cornice. Small section of timber missing to the back left-hand corner. Brasses seem original. Structurally sound, though the right-hand drawer needs some attention as the runner is damaged (we do have this piece).

 


We are happy to provide Condition Reports to prospective buyers, but would welcome your request as soon as possible, preferably at least 48 hours before the Day of Sale. We cannot guarantee a reply to any requests made within 48 hours of the start of the auction. The absence of a Condition Report from a lot does not mean that the lot is in perfect condition. A Condition Report is an honest expression of our opinion, not a statement of fact and is provided as a service to the seller. All lots are available on public view ahead of an auction and we encourage prospective buyers to inspect an item in person where possible. Our Condition Reports are not prepared by professional conservators, restorers, or engineers, and are prepared with the naked eye unless otherwise stated.

Regarding Pictures, Prints and Works on Paper, works are not examined out of the frame, unless specifically stated. Tennants Auctioneers do not cover damage to gilded wood or plaster picture frames, or to picture frame glass whilst the item is in our possession.

We accept no liability for the opinions expressed in any Condition Report.
