Free: Vintage 3-door wardrobe (Great Dunmow CM6) Gifted - Antique (1920s-1950s) 3-door wardrobe. Mahogany I think, with attractive marquetry on middle door. Dimensions (approximate) : 78 inches tall; 59" wide; 19.5" deep. 2 large drawers at the bottom; right-hand bay has 3 ordinary drawers and 3 'open' drawers. Unfortunately the left hand mirror broke when we were transporting it but a replacement mirror could be bought (I am told likely to be (much?) less than £100?). Or perhaps a bit of woodwork/polishing would mean could be used without that mirror? A nice project to do up or use the wood to make something else? Divides into 4 pieces for transport.
