A solid oak chest of drawers by Waring and Gillow, dating from the 1930s. This early 20th piece displays both Art Deco and utilitarian design influences, exemplified by the linear yet luxe feeling brass bar drawer pulls. Housing six drawers in a two over four configuration, the storage capacity increases towards the bottom, and the dresser is finished with turned and faceted feet.
This chest interior features the original brass maker's plaque reading 'Waring & Gillow Ltd. Lancaster' alongside the year 1932, and the rear panel bears the stamped model pattern number of the piece.
H 105cm
W 61cm
D 48cm
Good condition, well made and sturdy - the brass handles are aged and tarnished and there are some slight nicks and signs of age to the wood as shown. The interior has been painted white at some stage.
