Here is a piece that looks both contemporary and midcentury. Manufactured by British maker, Avalon, it’s a tall, practical tallboy dresser in a golden, blonde wood with a fine horizontal pinstripe grain, punctuated with dark teak round handles. It dates from the 1960s and cleverly in the shallower top drawer, you’ll find an integrated, fold-up mirror so it serves as a place to get ready too. Other than a thorough check, clean and buff with a natural polish, the finish is all original, such is its great condition. Tallboys dressers like this are fantastic storage for smaller bedrooms or rooms where wall space is limited. If you haven’t got the width to go sideways, then the solution is to go up with a slimline chest of drawers like this.
