Mid Century Linen Cupboard/Tall Boy by Herbert E Gibbs in Farrow & Ball Dowpipe

Mid Century Linen Cupboard/Tall Boy by Herbert E Gibbs in Farrow & Ball Dowpipe

Description:

A handsome mid century painted linen cupboard / tallboy by Herbert E Gibbs Cabinet Maker, labelled catalogue no. 256. With three drawers and double cupboard and a lift up top with mirror and a further storage compartment. It has the original brass handles which I have cleaned and polished by hand (not painted over or replaced!) and it has been carefully sanded and painted externally in Farrow and Ball's dark and dramatic 'DownPipe' Modern Eggshell. I have lined the drawers with a beautiful ebony damask paper. This piece would be a fabulous addition to a bedroom or landing as a linen cupboard or tallboy.

Condition:

This piece is in good condition with no major damage to note apart from some water damage to the veneer on the top of the cabinet, visible in the last picture. There are other minor nicks, dents and previous repairs which are to be expected with vintage and antique pieces and adds to their character. I don't just slap on a coat of chalk or mineral paint on my pieces and call them upcycled - each of my pieces undergo a lengthy process of restoration and preparation before being painstakingly stripped, cleaned, restored, woodworm treated if there is any sign of historic woodworm, primed and undercoated before painting a minimum of 4 coats to ensure a high quality finish. My pieces aren't distressed or shabby chic; they will naturally distress over time with general wear and tear, like all furniture.
