Hello everyone,
I was looking for a wardrobe and came across this one in a charity shop and had to have it. I am considering if/how to tidy up some of the scuffs and marks on the veneer which I believe to be walnut. I also only have one key, and the lock is a bit like a Yale door lock in that it always locks when you close the door. So a spare key is definitely on the list.
The only history I can find is that this was the Gentleman's wardrobe, as part of a 3 piece set, with a larger Lady's wardrobe and a dressing table.
It is marked inside Supersuite and has a British Standards kitemark dated 1960.
The key is inscribed SuperSuite Furniture Ltd which seem to be long gone.
Abtbody remember these? Any history they can share?
Thanks.
