This practical and well-designed tallboy comprises a chest of drawers with a cupboard above. It was made by Brynmawr Furniture Makers, a factory set up as part of the Quaker-led effort to tackle high unemployment in the 1930s. Its simple style is typical of the factory’s chief designer, Paul Matt. Mae’r cwpwrdd deuddarn ymarferol a lluniaidd hwn yn cynnwys cist ddillad gyda chwpwrdd uwchben. Fe’i gwnaed gan Wneuthurwyr Dodrefn Brynmawr, ffatri a sefydlwyd fel rhan o ymdrech a arweiniwyd gan y Crynwyr i fynd i’r afael â diweithdra uchel yn y 1930au. Mae ei arddull syml yn nodweddiadol o brif ddyluniwr y ffatri, Paul Matt.
