Bespoke Vintage Bassett Tallboy – El’s Collection

A truly rare find in New Zealand, this stunning vintage Bassett tallboy has been completely transformed into a one-of-a-kind statement piece.

The standout feature is the custom hand-cut wood detailing across every single drawer. Each individual piece of timber has been measured, hand-cut to size and carefully secured to the drawer fronts, creating a completely custom fluted design. This is not pre-made trim — every piece has been individually cut and fitted specifically to this tallboy.

The body has been refinished in a custom charcoal black, while the timber top has been completely refinished in a beautiful deep custom stain, giving this traditional Bassett piece a sophisticated modern look while retaining its original character.

The tallboy features double top drawers, providing additional smaller storage compartments, while the remaining large drawers offer an incredible amount of storage.

Finished with brand-new brass hardware to complement the charcoal black finish and deep timber top.

This is a substantial, beautifully made vintage Bassett tallboy that has been completely customised from its original design. You will not find another piece like this.
