A GEORGE II FIGURED WALNUT SECRETAIRE CHEST ON CHESTCIRCA 1740The fall drawer opening to an arrangement of small drawers and pigeon holes centred by a cupboard door flanked by secret compartments190cm high, 114cm wide, 58cm deep overall See Adam Bowett, Early Georgian Furniture, page 119, plate 3:47, for a closely related secretaire chest on chest. 'The chest on chest or double chest of drawers was a Georgian innovation, the earliest known ... in a bill submitted by Gumley and Turing ... to Kensington Palace in 1727. From about 1730 the projecting surbase moulding was gradually superseded by a flush moulding... A refinement about the same time was to angle the corners of the upper case to reduce the visual bulk, at the same time endowing it with quasi-architectural reeded pilasters. The coved sunburst decoration to the bottom of the drawer is usually an indication that the base is fitted with a secretaire. The cove was presumably an attempt to minimise damage to the base moulding from a person seated or standing at the secretaire'.For a closely related example see Sotheby's, London, Classic English Furniture, Norman Adams Legacy, 21st April 2009, lot 45 (£28,750).Condition Report: There are some marks, scratches, knocks, chips, splits and abrasions consistent with age and use.Overall there is a shellac type finish that over time and with some sun fading has a variable opaque quality.The top is stained.There are losses and restorations including to sections of veneers; some blocks to the feet; drawer runners; feet areaThe handles and locks are probably later but with no visible signs of previous handles.There are no keys, the locks are open.The sides, drawer linings and backboards have some splits along the grain of timber.There is evidence of worm.Please refer to the additional photographs as a visual reference of condition.Condition Report Disclaimer
