A three drawer chest of drawers by Heals

Price: £

Description: This appealing limed oak 1930's three drawer chest of drawers formed part of the 'Russet Oak' collection, manufactured by Heal's for sale from their showrooms in the Tottenham Court Road, London W1 - their trade mark ivorine button can still be found on the edge of the top drawer. The oak for the drawer fronts was cleverly chosen and cut to accentuate it's grain, giving a pleasing undulating appearance. Its design, colouration and limed finish has become synonymous with this period and manufacturer. When restoring these chests, our approach is 'less is more', as their traditional waxed surface provides little hiding place for the skills of the polisher, and any attempts to correct historic blemishes often detracts rather than improves.  However, any  imperfections to the surface (please see images) are now part and parcel of its history and, in our opinion do not detract from its overall appearance. Measurements - 79 cm high x 76.5 cm wide x 48 cm deep.
