Set of Vintage 1950s Chest of Drawers & Dressing Table by Stag

Something special from MCM design power couple, John and Sylvia Reid for Stag furniture – a matching pair of bedroom drawer chests, one large and one midi. This particular range is something of a rarity, we believe a short production run in the mid-1950s. Both the chest of drawers and larger dressing table are expertly designed and superbly crafted in dark walnut with a contrasting blond wood on the base and legs, creating a striking two-tone effect overall. They come in their original finish so there are signs of age across the external surfaces – superficial knocks and scuffs here and there but nothing that greatly distracts from their aesthetic appeal and nothing that affects their usefulness. This is reflected in our price. They give a great deal of bedroom storage across their nine drawers drawers. If you didn’t wish to use the mirror it can be easily removed. If you’re looking for a coordinated midcentury look in your bedroom, this is your starting point.

Full Condition Report
This is an original, vintage set that is ‘sold as seen’. We have serviced and cleaned both pieces inside and out, applying a natural polish to revive the shine but otherwise the finish is original. All the drawers are beautifully made with dovetail joints and solid wood fronts. They open and close with ease and all the original brass handles are securely attached. The mirror hangs on two uprights which screw in at the back and can be cleverly angled. The uprights can be easily unscrewed if you wished to simply use as a large chest of drawers, rather than a dressing table. There are surface scuffs, scratches and blemishes to the original exterior finish across both pieces which are clearly shown across our photos but given their age, we would expect wear and tear of this nature. Despite this, the pieces are stable, sturdy and with a great deal of life and appeal left in tact. They are very well made as you would expect from Stag and the superficial wear and tear is reflected in our price. The original Stag maker’s label can be found in the drawers. Please browse our photos for an accurate account of this item. Any queries, do get in touch.
