Delivery & Collection

Most mainland UK locations are covered by our standard £65 furniture delivery service, with a reduced local delivery rate of £30 available within 15 miles of Bourne End SL8.

Some remote or harder-to-reach areas may require a different delivery charge, so please check our Delivery Information page before ordering or contact us if unsure.


Furniture deliveries are carried out by one-man couriers, so assistance will usually be required to help unload the item at delivery. Delivery is generally to the door, although some drivers may assist further at their own discretion.


We aim to deliver most furniture items within 10 working days, depending on location and courier routes.


Collection is also welcome from our Bourne End showroom:

Condition & Authenticity

We aim to describe the condition of every item as honestly and accurately as possible, with any notable wear, repairs, damage or imperfections clearly shown in both the description and photographs.


Established since 2005, we have built a strong knowledge of interiors, antiques and period furniture, allowing us to confidently identify and catalogue our pieces.


If you would like a more detailed condition report, additional photographs or a walkaround video via WhatsApp or SMS, we are always happy to help.


Please contact us at furniture_@live.co.uk with any enquiries.

A More Sustainable Choice

Choosing antique and reclaimed furniture is one of the most sustainable ways to furnish a home.


Older furniture was often built using solid timber and traditional craftsmanship designed to last for generations, rather than a few years.


By giving these pieces a new home, you help reduce demand for mass-produced furniture while keeping beautiful, characterful items in circulation for years to come.

Dimensions

Height: 66 cm
Width: 110 cm
Depth: 51 cm

Condition

Structurally stable chest with original joinery. Surface marks, scratches and chips to edges; historic wood worm damage visible to the top and back. Lid edge and corners show losses and evidence of old repairs. Wear is consistent with age and long use.

This is an oak carved coffer chest in a Jacobean-style design, composed of panelled faces with circular roundel and foliate carving. The chest is a useful storage piece with a hinged lid and decorative brass escutcheon to the front; the oak has developed an even, aged patina and shows surface wear consistent with long use.

Dimensions

  • Width: 110 cm
  • Depth: 51 cm
  • Height: 66 cm

Condition

Marked and scratched across the surface with general wear to edges and corners. Staff report historic wood worm damage to the top and back; small worm holes are visible on the lid and rear panels. There are chips and losses to the front edge of the lid and some old repairs to the top. Structurally the chest sits square and the panels and legs appear sound, but the piece should be considered as a worn antique suitable for restoration or continued use as found.
