  1. Ernest Gimson, LARGE DRESSER, CIRCA 1917, "The quality of workmanship that has been achieved in this cabinet is testament to the skill of its maker Peter Waals who worked on the cabinet himself from June 1917 to Jan 1918 with some input from apprentices - the price was £70.8.0. Designed by Ernest Gimson with great subtlety for his friend F.L. Griggs it has not been offered to the market before now. The multiple bowed front and carved details and well-matched timbers lend the piece a vitality and lightness which is remarkable for such a substantial piece of furniture." - John Mackie, Head of DesignLARGE DRESSER, CIRCA 1917Lyon & Turnbull · £27,720≈ $37,009≈ €31,844Sign up to see
