I have a rare but rather wonderful Stag Captains Chest available for commission.
 
This stunning set of drawers features 8 drawers in total, 4 smaller and 4 larger compatible with storing those all important essential items both small and large. This piece is so versatile and would suit many rooms within your home and can take many decorative styles eluding to an amazing transformation.
 
Whether it be a sumptuous piece of bedroom furniture, a stunning statement sideboard for a communal area or dining room or even storage in your home snug.
 
Minstrel, introduced in 1964, was an update of the less-successful Madrigal range. It became Stag's best-selling furniture range.
 
It was based on Regency designs, updated to suit modern tastes and practical requirements. Made from Makore (African cherry) including both solid wood and veneered finishes, it had clean, elegant lines and simple brass hardware. The simplicity allowed a wide variety of pieces to be produced, all instantly recognisable and perfectly matching.
 
Stag Minstrel has more recently undergone a resurgence in popularity thanks to its quality of build, coupled with elegant and classic lines. These pieces form the perfect canvas for modern makeovers. A look popular with both interior designers and the style-conscious who seek out beautiful, functional and sustainable furnishings.
 
Minstrel was good value for money, and was in production for nearly forty years. It remains widely available, so it is generally not hard to find matching pieces to extend a collection.
 
The price quoted is to include the purchase of the piece of listed furniture and to have it painted in a colour of your choice from the Fusion Mineral Paint colour chart. This price also includes protective top coat,  and the full preparation process of careful cleaning, sanding and priming process. Any decorative techniques such as stencils, borders, transfers and the such like incur additional cost, please contact me to discuss your requirements.
 
COMMISSION WORK
We are always happy to take on custom orders, by sourcing pieces for you or by transforming pieces of furniture you already own. Working with you to your design brief and providing ideas and inspiration to achieve that perfect bespoke piece.
 
REFINISHED VINTAGE
This piece is vintage but in excellent condition. This is a genuine upcycled vintage item that has had a previous life and it may have minor imperfections relative its age and wear and tear over the years. It has been fully cleaned in readiness for it's new image as much as appropriate to maintain its character. The painting and design work is all created by hand so please expect a professional quality artists finish not a factory finish.
 
I am more than happy to provide additional images of this piece of furniture upon request from serious buyers. 
 
Delivery to most parts of the UK are included within this listing price however, if you live in Scotland, Ireland, Cornwall or West Devon, please do contact me ahead of purchasing to discuss delivery options - this piece will be delivered by a two man courier crew to ground floor only.

"I don’t like to match furniture and love mish mash, quirky and odd looking things lol. I absolutely love them. My house is 203 years old and is grade II listed. I think it makes an old cottage come alive and puts a modern twist on it. I love furniture that tells a story or gets people talking at a house party".

"I was looking for a piece to stand next to a small ornate fireplace in our 1920’s build home and kept coming back to this lovely makeover, named ‘Grace’. I’m so delighted to have bought it. Mandy took time and care in delivering it and although she emphasised the fact it was an old piece I can only re-emphasise that that is exactly what I was looking for. It is testament to her skills that she has given ‘Grace’ a wonderful new lease of life. The stencilling on the drawers is top notch; the piece is painted beautifully - including the bits you wouldn’t normally see, which I prefer".
