Description
When it comes to vintage furniture, few names resonate with quality and craftsmanship quite like Harris Lebus. Known for their attention to detail and timeless designs, their pieces often stand the test of time, both in durability and aesthetic appeal. One such piece that embodies this legacy is the exquisite five-drawer chest of drawers currently available for discerning buyers.
This Harris Lebus chest is the epitome of understated elegance. With its simple lines and minimalist design, it gracefully fits into any contemporary boudoir, accentuating the room without overwhelming it. However, it’s the subtle flourishes that truly set this piece apart, most notably the delicately carved detail at the top, which hints at a Scandinavian influence. This design element adds a unique charm, providing character while still maintaining a sleek silhouette.
One of the standout features of this chest of drawers is its fabulous original silver drawer pull handles. These handles have been carefully cleaned and meticulously polished, showcasing the thoughtful restoration that preserves the piece’s original integrity. It's not just about aesthetics; these original hardware elements are a testament to the craftsmanship of Harris Lebus, further entrenching the piece's historical value.
The restoration process for this chest has not been taken lightly. It has been lovingly prepared with a commitment to excellence. Each stage of the restoration has been executed with precision—from being stripped of old finishes and cleaned thoroughly. Only after these critical steps is the chest primed and undercoated, ensuring a solid base for what follows.
The crowning achievement of this restoration is, undoubtedly, the painting process. This chest has been beautifully hand-painted using custom mixed Fusion mineral paint—a high-quality product known for its durability and rich colour selection. A minimum of four coats have been applied to ensure a finish that not only looks stunning but also stands up to the rigors of daily use. This thoughtful approach to finishing guarantees that the chest will not only please the eye but also provide lasting utility.
As with any antique or vintage furniture piece, this Harris Lebus chest exhibits the customary minor knocks, dents, and cracks that beautifully testify to its history and authenticity. These slight imperfections are not seen as flaws but rather as charming reminders of a life well-lived, adding to the piece's unique character.
In terms of overall condition, this chest of drawers is in excellent shape and ready to be a functional piece in your home. Its blend of history, craftsmanship, and modern restoration makes it a valuable addition for anyone looking to bring a touch of vintage charm into their contemporary décor.
In a world dominated by mass-produced furniture, investing in a piece like this Harris Lebus five-drawer chest is like acquiring a work of art. Not only do you get a stunningly beautiful piece, but you also gain a story—a connection to the past through the craftsmanship of a timeless design. This chest is more than just a place to store your belongings; it's a statement piece that speaks to the beauty of quality craftsmanship and the love of restoration.
For those in search of a standout addition to their contemporary boudoir, this Harris Lebus five-drawer chest awaits to become not just a storage solution, but a treasured element of your home.
This beautiful chest of drawers measures: 102cm high x 77cm wide x 41cm deep.
