$2200 Item #painted dresser 0501-8

Width 38"

Height 39 3/4"

Depth 18 1/4"

Danish dresser in original brown grain paint.The pullout on the top drawer is meant to give a shelf for arranging jewelry and small items,likely this was a man's dressing piece.

 

The hardware fits the time period of c.1870 but is not matching. We can't decide if they used two kinds of hardware -unlikely or if over time some of the bail handles broke and the owner found similar hardware.

 

There is a repair to the pull out which we will paint to match.Otherwise this dresser in great shape.

 

Price includes restoration as required, delivery in our delivery district or a $200 discount to be used towards trucking or for pickup. And a tassel for the key.

Height 71 3/4" and with the crown 77 1/2

Rare barrel fronted Danish armoire c. 1850 in its original grain paint. Dovetailed drawer with original pull. Pegged overall. Original hardware and working lock. Unusually deep for its size and can work as a closet if we add a rod. The original fancy moving pegs are still there, you can see them in this photo...

This wonderful armoire comes apart in pieces easily reassembled, handy to go up narrow stairs.

The crown is easily removed.

Excellent condition overall but we will check everything out in the workshop before it goes to your home.

$750 Item #paintedtrunk02118-1

Width 23 1/2"

Height 14 1/2"

Depth 14"

Swedish trunk c. mid 1800's with original green paint and wonderful iron strapping. The date may be a bit earlier based on the lock. The strapping is worn on two corners on one side bottom, otherwise in terrific condition for its age overall. This is such a great size and so useful to put under a table or on a sideboard for storage and decoration! All pegged...

You can see how the peg has popped out in this photo. Always look for this in antique furniture. The grain of the peg is vertical, drys inwards as opposed to the grain of the wood it is put through which also dries inwards, therefore the pegs always pop over time.

This would make a nice hallway table for your keys or a small desk next to a guest bed.

I am writing the description with the drawer from this cabinet on my desk in order to try and describe the color which is a dreamy robin's egg blue. It is a blue with a lot of gray and a lot of yellow. I have tried twice to sneak this piece home with me--it is that charming!

This would make a perfect stand for a flat screen tv!

Original brass drawer pulls, leather hardware for the key escutcheons. Beautiful beaded molding, dovetailed drawers, even the sides of the drawers were beveled with care.

The paint...ususally I am quite sure if it is original or not but I am not sure on this piece and I will not guarantee it as original but I am not sure that it isn't either. It is a very Swedish color but it does not have the wear signs and stains I associate with an original finish. The back on this piece is impressive, nice thick beveled boards but I believe they are a replacement. So my best guess is that someone lovingly restored this cabinet and painted it this heavenly color, probably within the last 50 years. Nonetheless, I think I may try to sneak it home with me one more time!

 

 

 

$1450 Item #Painted Jelly Cupboard 1103-1 Swedish

Height 48 1/2"

Depth 16"

Width 39"

Interior depth 13"

Here is a Swedish jelly cupboard c. 1880 with its original bold grain painted finish, dovetailed drawers. The hardware is definitely replacement and we would be happy to remove it put on something else. Excellent condition

. This is the hardware on the door which is actually a drawer pull turned sideways. It is from the same time period and could b original, we won't know until we remove it but it is certainly as flamboyant and energetic as the decoration.
