CARVED OAK SIDEBOARD / DRESSER BASE

MODEL No.10.

 
 
A VERY ATTRACTIVE, MID - LATE 20th CENTURY, CARVED OAK, SIDEBOARD / DRESSER BASE, MODEL No.10, OF EXCEPTIONAL QUALITY AND CONDITION. THIS FABULOUS CARVED OAK DRESSER BASE WAS MADE BY 'RUPERT GRIFFITHS' 'MONASTIC WOODCRAFT LTD' OF BRAILSFORD, DERBYSHIRE, ENGLAND. THE SIDEBOARD / DRESSER BASE IS STILL BEING MADE TODAY BY HIS SON 'NIGEL GRIFFITHS', HIS WORKSHOP / SHOWROOM IS NOW BASED AT THE OLD CHEESE FACTORY GRANGEMILL, DERBYSHIRE. EACH ITEM OF FURNITURE IS INDIVIDUALLY CRAFTED, WITH HAND CUT DOVETAILS AND IS PLANED, SANDED, CARVED, STAINED AND POLISHED ALL BY HAND. THE DRESSER BASE 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 THE BACK OF EACH PIECE OF FURNITURE. THE DRESSER BASE IS LIGHT OAK IN COLOUR, IT HAS ATTRACTIVE OAK-WOOD GRAINING THROUGH-OUT AND WOULD SIT NICELY WITH OTHER MATCHING ITEMS OF 'GRIFFITHS' 'MONASTIC' HAND-MADE OAK FURNITURE. THE SIDEBOARD HAS A SPACIOUS FLAT TOP WITH VISIBLE PEGGED CORNERS, FOR ADDITIONAL STRENGTH. IT HAS TRADITIONAL STRAIGHT CUT EDGES, WITH 'CUT-OUT' CARVED DECORATION TO THE FACE AND SIDES. IT ALSO TAKES ON A DELIBERATE 'STRESSED OAK', AGED APPEARANCE, WITH RUSTIC 'STRESS' MARKS THROUGH-OUT. THERE ARE THREE USEFUL DRAWERS BELOW, ALL OF DIFFERENT SIZES, WHICH PROVIDE VERY USEFUL STORAGE SPACE. THE DRAWERS ALL HAVE STYLISH 'EYEBROW' HANDLES AND ATTRACTIVE 'FLUTED' CARVING TO THEIR FRONTS. THE DRAWER SIDES, EDGES AND RUNNERS HAVE ALL BEEN WAXED TO ELIMINATE WEAR, STICKING DRAWERS AND UNNECESSARY DAMAGE. THERE ARE FOUR SMALL CUPBOARD SECTIONS IN THE SIDEBOARD, WHICH AGAIN PROVIDE ADDITIONAL STORAGE SPACE. THE TWO LARGEST CUPBOARDS BOTH HAVE A SINGLE ADJUSTABLE OAK SHELF INSIDE AND ALL FOUR CUPBOARDS ARE LINED OUT IN SOLID OAK. THE CUPBOARD DOORS ALL HAVE MATCHING INSET, 'FIELDED' PANELS AND VISIBLE PEGGED JOINTS THROUGH-OUT, FOR ADDED STRENGTH. THEY HAVE DECORATIVE SOLID OAK, 'HAND CRAFTED' LATCHES AND MATCHING HAND MADE WOODEN HINGES, WITH ADDITIONAL HAND-FORGED STEEL HINGES ON THE TWO CENTRAL OAK DOORS. THERE ARE DECORATIVE MOULDED BORDERS TO THE TOP AND BOTTOM OF EACH DOOR AND THERE IS A DECORATIVE 'CHOP- CARVED', FLUTED FRIEZE AROUND THE BASE. THE SIDEBOARD HAS SOLID, INSET OAK, SIDE PANELS, WITH STYLISH, SWEPT, CARRYING HANDLES AT EACH END AND IT IS RAISED UPON SUBSTANTIAL 'TURNED OAK' LEGS AND STURDY BLOCKED FEET. THERE ARE ADDITIONAL MOULDED STRETCHERS AT THE BASE OF THE SIDEBOARD, AGAIN WITH VISIBLE PEGGED JOINTS AND ADDITIONAL MATCHING 'CUT-OUT' CARVED DECORATION TO THE BOTTOM EDGES. THIS SUPERIOR QUALITY, 'RUPERT GRIFFITHS', 'HAND-CRAFTED', SOLID OAK, DRESSER BASE HAS BEEN PROFESSIONALLY RESTORED, WITH ALL 'WEAR AND TEAR' / 'SCRATCHES' / 'PRESSURE MARKS' / 'FADING' / ''MINOR MARKS FROM USE'' / ''CHARACTER'' (DAMAGE) BEING REMOVED.
