A scarcely seen Mid Century chest of school drawers designed by James Leonard in the early 1950's for Esavian (ESA) The Educational Supply Association.

– Excellent restored condition

A very versatile piece of storage with twenty equally sized drawers with striking cutaway handles and iconic splayed legs - they are stunning examples of Mid Century furniture, and one of our absolute favourites (we have three sets in our own home!)

We were lucky enough to rescue seven sets from a school where they have lived since it opened in the 1950s! These are very early examples and incredibly scarce!

The carcass of this beautiful piece of furniture is constructed from beech with an inset composite top. The drawers are constructed from mixed timbers.

We have sympathetically restored these drawers to retain their stunning original character. They have been lightly sanded back and oiled resulting in a stunning piece with a rich, warm finish.

Condition
These drawers are vintage and have had years of use in schools by children so they do come with imperfections. They will have marks, polished in scratches, nics and the odd dink here and there... which add to their character, vintage appeal and gives a unique aged look - something that new furniture cannot replicate! There are marks etc. inside the drawers but these could be easily lined with a paper of your choice if desired. Please see the photos for more detail.

Dimensions:

Width: 124.5cm  

Height: 70cm

Depth: 35cm


Drawers - internal:  

Width: 26cm 

Height: 8.5cm  

Depth: 31cm


A very desirable piece, in excellent restored condition - would bring a touch of classic vintage style to any interior space.

Defective and see through.
Size: Medium, Color: White
For such an expensive linen dress, it should have no issues. It's see through on top and had snags in the bodice front. Also one of the stitchings over a breast seamed a little crooked. Zipper is OKAY. Does have pockets. Is a sturdy feeling breathable material but even covers would show through. I'm 5'9" and the Bodice part came low enough for me which is really rare and was very flattering. I got a medium for bust room so it was just a smidge loose in the waist but not bad enough that I wouldn't have kept it if it didn't have big snags in front. For being $90 it should absolutely not be see through.

Buy it!!
Size: Large, Color: Red Rose Floral
Love this dress! the fit is amazing and the fabric is linen but feels soft. It is lined, not see through at all and the straps are thick enough for a regular bra. It's a bit expensive for me but I was obsessed with the rose print, just love it.

Nice but TOO SMALL
Size: Medium, Color: Whisper White/Black Polka Dot
This dress is cut so small. I usually wear a medium and it didn’t attempt to zip up. If you buy this order a size or TWO up so you can actually fit it. Other than the size issue the quality is nice. The black polka dot print is cute.

Flattering
Size: X-Large, Color: Red Rose Floral
Beautiful and so flattering with a rich red color. Substantial fabric, not see through, skirt lined in red. Have not washed yet to test shrinking.
