Early twentieth century hand-painted upcycled sideboard (Harlington LU5)
This is an early twentieth century sideboard, which has been upcycled by means of painting both the exterior, and interior, as shown in the photographs. The piece has been sitting in a barn for quite some time, so that it doesn't present as well as it actually would if it was given a good dust, and rub down, with a damp cloth. It's a rather nice piece and the internal cupboards have rather fun paint schemes. It would be great for a living room as a drinks cabinet or in a brightly decorated kitchen, as a rather funky item from which to display cups, saucers, platters etc.

Antique (prob late 17thc) oak panelling, including a door. (Harlington LU5)
A fairly large piece of panelling, probably about 8 feet by 8 feet. We are moving house and do not need the panelling. It is an original antique, which we would estimate to date from the late seventeenth century, when such items were most commonly installed in period properties. It is a relatively rare find and is in largely good condition.

The chairs are brown, as shown. They make good wedding or event chairs, which can be covered, if one wants to make them look rather posher. They are mostly in fully usable condition, but have scratches and some superficial rust. You can take all or some, as per your preference.

A 19thc serpentine mahogany sidebard (Harlington LU5)
Gifted
The piece is brown and is 145 cm in width. It has been stored in an outside shed for some time and may need a little bit of polishing or restoration. It would certainly be perfectly suitable for upcycling and is a high-quality piece of furniture.
