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
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.

A More Sustainable Choice
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.

Condition
The coffee table is in good used condition, showing honest cosmetic signs of use as a central family piece:
- The Top: There is a distinct, faded heat/water ring mark on the right-hand side of the top surface, along with another smaller, light surface mark nearby (see detail photos, IMG_7353.jpg and IMG_7354.jpg).
- The Frame: The outer frame and base molding show a few minor chips, scuffs, and small knocks to the stained finish, particularly around the lower corners and feet from standard domestic vacuuming and wear.
- The Interior: The massive internal storage space is structurally clean but displays some general historic use marks and light scratching to the base panel.
- Build: Extremely robust, heavy, and solid. All twelve drawers slide perfectly, the strap hinges are strong, and the lid operates smoothly.
Description
A classic piece of country-chic lounge furniture, crafted from solid birch timbers with a rich, warm stained finish. Designed in the style of an antique apothecary chest, the front of the table features twelve individual drawers, each fitted with original dark brass knob handles.
The top surface is split into a fixed rear panel and a large front lid secured by two heavy-duty black iron strap hinges, opening up to reveal a massive internal blanket-box style storage compartment. This dual-access design gives you the look of a multi-drawer chest on the outside, with the immense practical storage of a traditional trunk on the inside.
