IRISH DRESSER
£2,250.00A fine example of Irish vernacular furniture, this late 18th Century painted dresser and rack is distinguished by its desirable, diminutive scale. Crafted with a wonderfully primitive aesthetic.

A rare and highly decorative survival of Irish country folk art furniture, perfectly proportioned for modern or historic interiors alike.
Condition: Original paint throughout, with some later historic timber replacements which have been well-painted and stained to match the original. Historic woodworm present as expected, this doesn’t affect the integrity of the piece.

Displaying a rich, dark patina throughout, this imposing piece offers a good height and presence, making it ideal for displaying large bronzes, busts, decorative ceramics, or functioning as a standalone statement piece.
Condition: Very good antique condition showing light historic marks, wear, and surface variation appropriate for its age. The top capital plate and the stepped base section are later additions, creating a solid and stable decorative pedestal.

The circular top is raised over a traditional triangular apron frame and supported by three finely turned legs finished in a dark paint.
Constructed for daily use within the convent, these classic three-legged cricket tables are naturally stable on uneven flagstones. Its honest wear and careful preservation over more than a century give it a wonderful sense of history.

TURKMEN CUSHION
£450.00An antique Turkmen chuval cushion, repurposed from a hand-woven tribal cargo bag (chuval) originally crafted by nomadic Turkmen weavers of Central Asia.
The face of the cushion features the iconic, highly structured geometric gul (tribal crest) medallions. These are intricately knotted in a classic colour palette of deep crimson, rich madder reds, jet black, and warm ivory, with subtle forest green accents. The top seam is bound with a heavy, hand-braided dark cord, preserving the utilitarian ruggedness of its original tribal form.
In nomadic life, chuvals were prized storage bags hung inside yurts to hold clothing and household treasures. The generous, wide proportions of this piece reflect that heritage perfectly, making it an incredibly impressive, large-scale bolster or floor cushion.
The cushion has been finished with a high-quality, complementary backing and generously stuffed with a luxurious, heavy wool interior insert. Due to the bespoke manufacture of the piece, the cushion cover is not removable or washable. Dab clean recommended, with a warm rung out cloth.
