A beautifully constructed Afromosia tallboy / chest of drawers designed by Richard Hornby for mid century furniture makers Fyne Ladye. Hornby and Fine Ladye produced exclusively high-end and quality furniture that was sold in department stores such as Harrods, Heals and Maple & Co.

The tallboy features solid Afromosia drawer fronts and legs. Superb craftsmanship throughout, made from Afromosia teak, dovetail joints and carved recessed handles to each drawer.

This tallboy has been gently cleaned but unrestored from when we have had it. The main signs of wear are to the top but these are consistent with age and use. The legs are structurally solid and all of the individual drawers run well. Please review the photos – happy to answer any questions.

Fyne Ladye Furniture of Banbury was one of the few quality British makers to use solid woods for their pieces in the late 1950s and early 1960s. Richard Hornby was a very accomplished designer whose simple elegant, clean designs were popular with well off middle-class buyers looking for modern Scandinavian style pieces at the time.
