A large, fine and rare mid-19th century French chestnut or ash femme de chambre; the outset cornice above four glazed doors opening to reveal shelf space, four concave moulded drawers below and four panelled doors, each with a central lozenge design, original ironwork and of very good colour, raised on plinth base, circa 1840, 230cm wide x 53cm (deepest) x 195cm high, together with original copy invoice from Denzil Grant (Suffolk Fine Arts Limited) for £9,600 CONDITION REPORT: This is in two sections top and bottom and each section is exceptionally heavy. The cornice and plinth base are not removable. Condition is generally commensurate with age. The second door in from the left has a cracked pane also the first door in from the right. As a French provincial rustic piece it is in reasonable order. There is evidence of historic woodworm mostly to the left hand side upper section and also some minor historic worm to the right hand side. This does have some splits to the sides but these are really just where the individual planks are parting having shrunk across the grain through time. The piece retains a good overall colour and does show minor scratching and scuffing mostly commensurate with age and in our opinion this would benefit from a decent wax polishing. Some sections of wood have split naturally (notably the right hand vertical where the bottom hinge is on the top section and it looks as if these have been filled some years ago). This comes with an original copy invoice from Denzil Grant (Suffolk Fine Arts Ltd) for £9,600 as originally supplied to the clients.
