This Welsh Dresser or Welsh Cupboard has the beautiful patina of age and has lived an active and elegant life. It is likely English Oak and likely 18th Century - - its origins are unknown. I bought it in 2003 from an antique consignment store in Woodland, California. for about 1600 dollars. It is in very good antique condition with a few small parts to reaffix.
It has two cabinets on the sides; the one on the left has two shelves inside and is the right size for a wine bottle. The one on the right has four shelves . It used to lock and probably still could if a key could be made. The shelves above the counter are 6 inches deep and have grooves down the middle to display plates . There are 18 nail hooks for mugs or other decoration. The three drawers are quite large and have a clean, aged feel inside.
Overall measurements in inches: 83 wide, 73 tall, 19 1/2 deep. The counter is 30 1/4 tall.
I love this piece for the warmth it gives a space and for the variety of things you can do with it. I display my Christmas village on it and let each shelf look like part of a hilly town. I like to show platters and plates that usually hide on shelves and it's fun to set up a bar on it, or a buffet, for a party. I have used the drawers for desk items I want near the kitchen and for placemats and candles that need storage. It looks at home with other styles of furniture and sits on a sturdy base.
