A charming Welsh farmhouse pine panelled box settle, dating to late 19th century.

Fresh to market and sourced from the island of Anglesey. 

Of small proportion and simple in it’s styling, this a wonderful example of Victorian understated Welsh country furniture.

Constructed fully from pine, and found in the original painted finish. With both peg and nail construction throughout.

The seat panel lifts out giving access to the storage area within the base. There is a single small cut out within the box base below the seat panel, conveniently placed to allow a space for the fingers to lift the seat panel up.

The settle is simple and vernacular in its construction, which shows this was made to serve the farmhouse first and foremost as a seat, with little consideration to embellishments that were not essential.

Will seat two, certainly an ideal option for a kitchen. 

 

Dimensions:-

Height - 117.5cm

Width - 107cm

Evidence of historic non active woodworm, this has been treated additionally for peace of mind.

Some historic losses to the timber as would be expected.
