I, FREDERICK MOSELEY WALKER, of 9, Morrin Square, Collins Street, in the
City of Glasgow, Cabinet Maker, do hereby declare the nature of this invention
and in what manner the same is to be performed, to be particularly described and
ascertained in and by the following statement:-
This invention has for its object to provide in a single article of furniture the
several parts or pieces of a bedroom suite.
The invention is illustrated by the accompanying drawings in which Figure 1
is a front elevation and Figure 2 an end elevation of the combination bed-room
suite showing the wardrobe portion as fitted on the right hand side of the dressing
table portion of the combination. Figures and 4 are corresponding views of
a modification of the invention in which the dressing table is fitted on the opposite
ide of the wardrobe.
As shown by these drawings, the improved combination bedroom suite is com-
posed of a wardrobe A of ordinary make to either side of which a dressing table
or toilet table B is attached by screws or otherwise so as to be detachable, both

page_text: being supported upon a base piece or separate bases A¹, B¹. The toilet table
is furnished with a fixed or swing mirror C and has a marble or tiled back D and
slab E to form a wash-hand stand, and the under part is fitted as a chest of
drawers F and provided with a commode G. On the end of the table a towel
rail His secured.
The wardrobe and toilet table are plain on both ends so that the one may be
secured to either side of the other to suit the position in which the combination
suite is to be placed, the towel rail H being detachable and adapted to be held in
orifices I, corresponding to those through which the screws or bolts are passed
for binding together the wardrobe and toilet table. For convenience such orifices
may be formed on both sides of the wardrobe and toilet table and those not in
use may be filled by dummy screws sunk flush with the wood-work.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said inven-
tion, and in what manner the same is to be performed, I declare that what I
claim is:-
A combination bed-room suite composed of a wardrobe and a toilet table
adapted for attachment one to either side of the other, the toilet table forming a
wash-hand stand and being furnished or not with drawers and a commode or like
accessories substantially as described.
Dated this 26th day of February 1898.
