Description

A very stylish, little dresser with lots of options for use in the modern home. Originally a dressing table (which it still can be – swipe for photos), we love it minus the mirror as a smart, compact sideboard. Equally, its height and depth mean it would be an effective console in an entrance hall or as a TV / media unit in the sitting room too. And of course, you can keep the original mirror in place on its uprights and use it as intended, as a neat dressing table with three drawers flanked by two cupboards. There are lots of design details that set this apart from others of the day – the splayed, brass-capped legs; the sleek, minimalist design; the different tone of the top drawer; but most of all, the high gloss lacquered finish which makes the dark walnut sing.

Original Homewares offers a thoughtfully selected collection of vintage & midcentury furniture, lights & homeware, chosen for today’s homes. Our goal is to present well-crafted, well-designed, practical pieces with narrative & character that still have a place & purpose. Sourcing from across the UK & Europe, from all periods, ranging from late 19th Century antiques to classic midcentury design to considered items from the past 25-30 years.

Condition report:

This authentic, vintage dressing table is ‘sold as seen’. Overall it is in good, used condition. It has been cleaned inside and out, and polished on its exterior surfaces but otherwise the high lacquer finish is all original. There are numerous small chips, scuffs and marks to the glossy finish which can be clearly seen across our photos. They are in line with the kind of wear you might see on a piece of this age and with this particular shiny surface – it doesn’t wear so well. Unfortunately it’s hard to remedy without removing the finish entirely and starting again. We feel that in the overall context of the dressing table, the nips and marks here and there are not hugely noticeable. They don’t greatly detract from its appeal and don’t impact its function so we’ve opted to leave it. This wear and tear is reflected in our price. Do be sure to browse through our images. It is very solid and sturdy with no wobbles or signs of repair. All interiors are clean and tidy. The drawers slide easily and are well made. The legs have their brass feet in place. The frameless mirror slots onto two uprights which are simply screwed to the back. The mirror can be angled forward by pulling at its base. There is a minor chip on one corner which we have shown. The Meredew mark can be found inside the top drawer. If you have any questions or would like to view the table, please do get in touch.

Returns

We have a 14-day return guarantee for orders from individual sellers, within the UK and European Union. View full policy.

We can arrange fast delivery with experienced delivery partners who cover most of the UK mainland that we have worked with for many years. We have a weekly collection of sold pieces, usually every Thursday, and onward delivery to our customers follows 1-5 days after this, depending on the delivery address. They are reliable and insured but their service does require a little flexibility as they work to set routes. They will confirm a date when they are next in your area and able to deliver. They will then update you directly via text with delivery updates and timings.

Please enquire for Scotland & remote addresses - we can quote separately for this.

Smaller items, such as lamps, are sent via DPD to UK mainland locations and the price is quoted in the description for this service. Tracking information is provided and this is a Mon-Fri delivery service.

You are of course very welcome to collect or arrange your own collection / delivery - just let us know.

Feel free to drop us a message if you'd like to know about delivery dates and options prior to purchase.

Cancellations and Returns

Last updated: 24th March 2025

We want everybody’s Vinterior experience to be seamless, so both buyers and sellers can fall in love with pre-loved. We designed our Terms of sale to treat everybody fairly.

However, sometimes things don’t go exactly to plan, and you may need to cancel or return an order.

To prevent this, we encourage you to check listings, photos and descriptions carefully before you buy. If you aren’t sure about a piece’s condition, size, provenance or shipping, just ask; click Contact seller to get in touch. Always contact your seller first if you have any queries, at any point in your purchase.

Our buyers receive the same protection when buying from all our sellers, both professional and verified.

Can I cancel an order?

There are many reasons why you might need to cancel an order, and you'll often be entitled to a refund. To cancel an order, click Create cancellation on the order page.

If you cancel your order before it has been dispatched, you will receive a full refund - including delivery costs. However, if your item has been shipped, delivery costs will not be included in your refund.

Please note: orders of bespoke, personalised or made-to-order pieces cannot be cancelled.

Can I return an order?

We understand that sometimes a piece isn’t the perfect fit. So if you no longer want your order, our returns process will ensure it finds a new home fast.

The Vinterior Guarantee included with your purchase entitles you to 14-day returns - allowing you to return any item within 14 days of the delivery date (except in specific circumstances, detailed below).

You can return your order if...

It isn't what you expected

If what arrives isn’t what you ordered, you can open a return. Just send us some photo evidence that the listing was inaccurate, misleading or misrepresented your purchased piece, and you’ll receive a refund.

You change your mind

If you don’t feel a piece is right for your space, you can return it. Once you request a change of mind return, you’ll be responsible for shipping the piece back to your seller as soon as possible. Delivery costs are non-refundable.

It's damaged in transit

In the rare event that an item arrives damaged or defective, you have a full 30 days from the date of delivery to return it for a full refund.

If your purchase arrives broken, always let us know. If Proovia delivered the piece, we can raise an insurance claim on the seller’s behalf. Or, the seller can raise a claim with their chosen courier.

What can't I return?

Just as there are some orders you can’t cancel, there are some you cant return, too. Personalised, bespoke or made-to-order pieces are non-returnable, and non-refundable. Sellers may also reject your return if the item has been altered in any way.

Please note: pieces on our site are pre-loved, not new. They may show some wear and tear; this is not sufficient grounds for a refund, unless the seller has misrepresented the item’s condition.

Lastly, neither Vinterior nor our sellers are liable for any damages or loss sustained in transit via third parties.

I'm eligible for a return. Now what?

To initiate a return, log into your Vinterior account, then go to the relevant order page and click Create a return. In the return request, be sure to include all the details: the reason for your return, an in-depth description, and photos of any issues or damage.

How will I receive my refund?

Once the seller confirms they’ve received the item (in the same condition it was sent), we will send your refund to your original payment method.

All items are inspected on return. If the seller receives the return with damage they don’t recognise, we will not be able to process your refund and the seller may need to send the piece back to you. You will be required to cover these delivery costs.
