Free: Pine dressing table (Brantham CO11) Gifted 28d - Ducal Bellamy solid pine dressing table with two pedestals, each with five drawers. Bought new in the early 80's. Now in need of a little tlc.

It is quite large: width: 57" (145cm) height: 29.5" (75cm) depth: 19.5" (50cm) Space between pedestals: 20.75" (53cm). Please make sure you have a vehicle big enough to fit it in!
