A 19th century Dutch oak chest of drawers, with serpentine front fitted with four drawers with brass handles and lock escutcheons and raised on bracket feet, width 91 cm. CONDITION REPORT: The chest of drawers is structurally sound. The top is not warped. There are some old faint watermarks to the top and the odd old scratch but no significant issues. The top is manufactured from four pieces of timber. The joins between the timbers are visible. The chest at some point has been cut into two halves. It is now fixed together again. The marks along each side are clearly visible. There are also seam gaps between the side planks. All drawer fronts are in generally good order and the handles and lock escutcheons would appear to be original. The lock to drawer two is missing. All other locks are present but we have no keys. There are some scuffs and marks around the bracket feet. The backboards are original. We can see no evidence of any woodworm.

A Georgian oak cupboard, with moulded cornice above a pair of panelled doors, the base fitted with two short and two long drawers with brass drop handles with oval backplates and all raised on tall stile feet. Width 112 cm (see illustration). CONDITION REPORT: The cornice is in generally good order. The left hand return has some small traces of woodworm (long gone) towards the rear and there is a stress fracture to the bottom edge of the moulding. There is a small timber loss of approximately 1 cm at the very top rear edge of the cornice by the wall. The left hand side is manufactured from two pieces of wood and there is an open gap between the two planks. The right hand side is similar. The doors to the top half are not warped and close as they should. The lock is present but we have no keys. The interior of the top has one central shelf. The moulding between the base and top is a little loose. The return section on the left hand side is detached but present. There is a small timber loss to the rear edge of the left hand return moulding of approximately 2 cm in length and 0.5 cm in height. Again this is at the wall end. Both side base panels have visible gaps between the joints of the two planks. The drawer fronts are in generally good order as per our image and all metalwork is present. Only one drawer actually has a lock which is present but we have no keys. All other lock escutcheons are simply for decoration. The bracket feet are significantly scuffed, particularly around the corners, and the mortise and tenon joints are visible. There is slight evidence of old long gone woodworm to the base of the legs. The back panels are original.

A near pair of Chinese carved hardwood jardiniere stands, each with rouge marble top and beaded edge, top diameters 28 cm, height 46 cm (see illustration). CONDITION REPORT: The marble on both stands is in good order with no obvious cracks or large chips. There are a couple of fleabite size nibbles around the rims but nothing too detrimental. One stand has a small chip to the centre of one flowering petal. There are small knocks and chips throughout but the fretwork is very much intact. There are two small splices missing from the underside that supports the marble but this is not affected in anyway particularly. There are small chips to the feet. One small piece of beading around the top has broken in half. Generally this is structurally sound but some of the brackets are loose which one would expect commensurate with its age. On the second stand, the beading around the rim is all intact. One section of fretwork is missing the lower half of a flower. A second section of fretwork is missing the lower quarter of a flower. A third section is missing the tips to the lower section of the flower. The majority of these faults will be using our zoom facility on the website. One lower bracket is loose and the carved flower within is also loose. There are four small slices to the underside that support the marble but these do not affect it in any way. There are small knocks throughout that are commensurate with its age. Generally both are structurally sound.
