34th year in business and the first time I’ve stocked a hall stand.
Victorian furniture isn’t usually my style, but this small 19th century English country oak piece is quite delightful.
Borrowed a suitable hand bag from Notre Malvern, the warm scarf I purchased from Notre last year.
Keeps me nice and warm.

A Nest of English Oak Tables

A Nest of English Oak Tables

SOLD

This nest of 1920s oak side tables have been around for many many years.
I purchased them around 15 years ago, my late father Neville stripped the lacquered finish off for me, for some reason he removed all the tops?

So over the years, we found some tops, the bases, moved from store to storeroom, bloody bloody!!

One of my favourite aspects about English country furniture, is they used the timbers available in their workshops at the time. If this was a town piece, would all be cut from the same tree and would be mahogany.
How’s this, I imported this table from UK well over a decade ago, along with several pieces we’re cleaning up this week.
Remarkably, the cleaning and re waxing time was about two hours. Well it’s nice finally getting all this nice new/old stock ready for showroom.
