Restoration of a fine Chippendale period mahogany Gentleman's wash stand.

A recent project brought in by a customer. The Gentleman's wash stand had bad shrinkage cracking to the top of it's hinged lid. Also on closer inspection, it was missing it's blind fretted left and right side panels, the top waist moulding and the front corner fretted spandrels were broken off and missing. To add to this, the interior was incomplete,with it's fitted box lids damaged and minus their surrounds. Several ring handles were missing, having been replaced with later ivory knobs. A lot of the fretwork on the supports was damaged or missing and the leather wheeled castors were completely worn down.
