Stock ref: DS2708
Circa 1930s/40s
A most interesting unmarked piece, almost certainly made ‘out of hours’ by a Mouseman craftsman for their own family use. This was quite common and allowed in Roberts lifetime. This oak bedside / side cabinet has been constructed using top quality burr oak panels, adzed and pinned in the manner that the craftsmen were taught at Robert Thompson’s, even the inner backs are adzed. The only aspect of the piece that concerns us a little is that in our opinion the top may not be original to the piece, the fastening used to secure it looks somewhat crude and out of keeping with the jointing used elsewhere on the piece.
Nevertheless it’s a lovely piece with a rich depth of aged and fumed colour, and a bargain at this price.
