18th century English oak lowboy.

Another piece purchased last week that still requires a clean up and re wax finishing.
I’ll carefully remove much of the later polish, bring back to a lighter oak, then re wax finish.
Later brass work, I’ll probably replace with period style swan-neck handles.

Rare 19th century French solid kingwood ‘whatnot’

This rare 19th century French solid kingwood whatnot is certainly a work of cabinetmaker, leader of Japonism, Gabriel Viardot (1830-1904).

It is surmounted by a varnished polished bronze dragon that is frequently found in the cabinetmaker’s production.

The lower part also has shelves whose upright is decorated with a wrapped dragon in varnished polished bronze.
