This is one of the finest quality antiques I have ever seen, the timber patina is sublime, absolutely exquisite in every way shape and form, the carvings, cuts of wood used, everything is first class, this would have been a no expense spared commission for a very important family.
A Wellington chest is a tall chest of drawers with a lockable side panel, the smaller versions are around 100cm with the taller versions coming in at approximately 130cm, this piece is over 150cm tall and has as you can see, a pair of Wellington chests which house an open library bookcase in the middle
The condition is very very good, we have cleaned waxed and polished it from top to bottom, there may be some age and use related patina marks here and there as you would expect from a piece 190+ years old, nothing that detracts from the charm and charisma

Condition
Please view the very detailed pictures as they form part of the description around condition
Please note vintage period and original items such as leather seating will always have natural patina in the form of cracking creasing and wear, we recommend regular waxing to ensure no moisture is lost, also hand dyed leather is not recommended to sit in direct sunlight for prolonged periods of time as it will dry out and fade.
