Midcentury 1970s Dressing Table by William Lawrence of Nottingham

Serving up masses of seventies style is this dresser / vanity table from British maker, William Lawrence of Nottingham. We don’t often come across pieces by William Lawrence. They produced very well-made, domestic pieces to rival the likes of G Plan and Austinsuite in terms of design, build and wood quality but perhaps without the volume and far reach of those mega midcentury brands. This dresser has six drawers in graduated banks of three. We love the hidden recessed handles of the upper row and the slight curve of the drawer fronts – classic 1970s. The unusual U shaped legs cleverly form the uprights for the mirror. A smashing retro piece for the bedroom or dressing room. Storage and a spot to get ready in one.

Description

This is an original, vintage piece that is ‘sold as seen’. It is in overall good – very good, used condition. It has been checked and cleaned inside and out, and a natural beeswax polish applied to the exterior wood but otherwise the finish is original. It’s a nicely crafted piece. All six drawers are in good, tidy order internally, with just minimal marks inside from use, and they slide with ease. The exterior wood is in good order with just light scuffs and blemishes in line with its age and purpose. These are primarily on the top, as you might expect but in the overall context of the piece this isn’t particularly noticeable. Please browse our photos. The large mirror hangs two uprights which screw in at the back and can be angled by pulling gently at the bottom. There is a discreet white patch where the bottom of the mirror joins the frame – please refer to our photo. It’s worth noting that although the mirror can be easily removed for ease when moving it around, the uprights cannot as they are formed from the legs. The original William Lawrence sticker is still affixed in the drawer and at the back. If you’d like to view this piece or have any queries whatsoever, please get in touch.
