Last night after closing shop I visited my customers home, they recently purchased some beautiful art from me, as Julian Stafford, Picture Rail Systems hung them yesterday.
They look perfect for the spaces intended and Julian did a fantastic job!
The strong William and Mary, Queen Anne from 1690 to 1710 influence, including the double arched carved pedemint steel drop handles and bold bun-feet.
With floral, leaf carvings to the facing rounded corners, a lot more worn to the base.
Turned finials supporting the rails for the display shelving, plain moulded drawers, so the beautifully carved arched fielded paneled doors of birds with out swept wings holding flowers.
Then a beautiful ogee-shaped bottom rail, resting on bold bun feet.
The well patinated two plank moulded top having a deep plate groove to the rear, to hold large upright dinner and serving plates.
Above a stylish double mould, meeting with the sides to create a framed look. The three central drawers, flanked by two flowing mould carved paneled doors.
With a decorative applied ogee shaped long lower rail, joined to a continued slight shaped moulded foot.
The well patinated two plank moulded top, retaining the original knuckle-hinges, above a central moulded top rail, joined to matching uprights, with reversed dividing uprights to the sides, housing plain double panels, with three to the front.
The interior having the original candle box and two plank floor (rare)
Having one obvious patch to rear left of top, probably done around 100 years ago (I’m able to blend faded patch colour if customer desires)
The well patinated fine moulded two plank top, above an ogee shaped skirt, housing one long central scratch-carved moulded drawer, flanked by two deeper matching drawers, having later attractive brass handles.
