Rare Mid Century Vintage G Plan Zebrano Teak Chest Of Drawers / Dressing Table with Adjustable Mirror

This rare, mid-century, chest of drawers is from the 1950s, designed by Victor Wilkins and manufactured by E. Gomme, the company that would become G Plan.

This Chest of Three Drawers is from the Librenza range, in Zebrano Teak, beautifully made with a fantastic striking finish. The original brass handles are all in perfect condition, only displaying wear commensurate with age and use.

Given it’s over 50 years old, it’s in excellent vintage condition throughout, with no detracting marks or deep scratches ( please take care to look at the photos where you will see we have tried to highlight the worst of any obvious damage ).

The dovetail drawers are clean ( with no stains or odour ) and run smoothly; the top drawer is divided into three separate compartments and bears the original gold G Plan stamp to the base. The beech, ebonised, legs have been touched in to maintain the elegant contrast with the leg caps and adjustable feet, made from pressed, spun, brass.

The mirror attached was acquired with the set of drawers but when we tried to put it all together we think the wrong piece of glass was given to us, however some slight adjustments have been made to the brackets and it now fits. We have also attached to the mirror wall hanging plates, this gives you option to use the drawers separately and the mirror to hang above on a chain. New screws have been used to the mirror fixings, making the removal extremely easy.

Having not been able to find another piece like this and with the adjustments we have made, it’s a definitely a one off!

Great, versatile, stylish storage that epitomises the MCM era of fabulous, functional, design.
