A superb  early oak 2’6″(w) x 4′(h) Chest of Drawers from the Kilburn workshops of Robert Mouseman Thompson. Adzed to all visible surfaces with a rear upstand, panelled sides and 2 short over 4 long drawers, each with early hand tooled wooden door knobs. An excellent signature mouse  is carved to the canted lower front corner leg.
