We just finished restoring this second half 18th century English oak cross-banded mule chest for a customer.
There were also several structural repairs, eg top and back boards.
One drawer front had been replaced well over 100 years ago, however they neglected to cross band, so Eddie worked his magic.
Customers very happy with the results.
