A VERY ATTRACTIVE, MID-LATE 20th CENTURY, CARVED OAK, 'DERBYSHIRE' DRESSER, OF EXCEPTIONAL QUALITY AND CONDITION.

THE DRESSER IS CONSTRUCTED USING TRADITIONAL METHODS AND ONLY THE VERY BEST QUALITY SOLID OAK TIMBER AND FINISHES ARE USED THROUGH-OUT, INCLUDING ALL DRAWER LININGS, THE BASE AND BACK OF EACH PIECE OF FURNITURE. THE DRESSER HAS A LARGE REMOVABLE TOP SECTION, WHICH HAS A MOULDED TOP CORNICE, WITH A DECORATIVE SHAPED FRIEZE BELOW.
