Description:
Here is a fine quality pair of antique English Art Deco figured walnut “skyscraper” design bedside chests, circa 1930 – 1940, in excellent condition. The bedsides are constructed with stunning figured book matched walnut veneers on a solid cross banded frame. The bedsides are constructed with a “skyscraper” design, with a narrower drawer to the top section, and a moulded curved frame, with three further large drawers below. All four drawers are constructed with oak drawer linings and retain their original horizontal handles. They run smoothly and close flush to the frame. The bedsides stand on their original splayed bracket feet. These bedsides boast classic Art Deco styling throughout; this is visible in the rounded corners, clean lines and stepped design.
These bedsides boast a mellow walnut colour. They have a fantastic colour and patination; this can only be achieved through age and years of care and cleaning they have received.
These bedsides would look superb in a variety of rooms from the living room to the bedroom. They would certainly grace any home, in either a traditional or contemporary setting; they are a great investment as they are extremely functional. So, don’t miss out on your chance to own a lovely piece of furniture.

Condition Report:
These Art Deco bedside tables are in excellent condition, which is commensurate with their age. They are pedestals from an Art Deco dressing table, which has been adapted into bedside chests. Nominal old use marks to the leading edges, but nothing significant considering the age of them. The bedsides feature lovely figured walnut veneers, boasting a mellow walnut colour, which are all in excellent condition. The drawers close flush to the frame and retain the original handles. They have been French polished by hand to a professional standard in our workshop. These items are well constructed, solid in joint and ready to use.
