A 19th century antique English pine box settle with storage

A diminutive English antique late 19th century pine box settle with panelled backrest.

Built encorporating two lift out seat panels, giving access to the storage space within the base. The key hole to the left side shows that originally this section of the base could have been secured and was used to store valuables.

Well proportioned and comfortable, with the many years of use creating a lovely warm tone and smooth finish to the timber.

Fresh to market and sourced from Marlborough, Wiltshire.

Understated and made with a simple rural aesthetic in mind. 

Of nice small proportion, allowing seating for two adults comfortably.

Dimensions:-

Widest point - 130cm

Height - 121cm

Depth - 54cm

Seat height - 45.5cm

Seat depth - 41cm

Backrest height - 73cm

Seat width - 114cm

A lovely light example of a pine country settle, which stands out from the darker examples, a perfect piece to go into a kitchen interior.

With obvious age related wear,  one small section of moulding lacking to the base.

Structurally sound and ready to use.

Overall a wonderful piece of country house furniture which serves as both a seat and storage. Ideal for a small interior where space is tight or multi-use is required

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