Description
Very rare 5 piece Uniflex walnut K Range bedroom set designed by Peter Hayward .
Introduced in 1964 as a premium range by the forward thinking Uniflex the K range and it’s associated rosewood P Range dining set were designed by Peter Hayward . Most sellers have wrongly assumed that this amazing design was by Gunther Hoffstead as he was their designer of choice in the 1960’s . We’ve found it illustrated in a 1964 article in a trade paper called The Cabinet Maker where Uniflex were giving the designer as Peter Hayward . Hayward designed their late 1950’s ranges and both he and Gunther Hoffstead were independent designers . Hoffstead designed the more commonly seen Q Range and some other successful pieces in the early 1960’s .
We had one of the low chests last Spring which was the first piece we’d had for some years , and have now been lucky to buy a full set from the family of the original Scottish owners who bought it new in around 1965 . You’ll find the chests and dressing tables for sale occasionally , but we couldn’t find any wardrobes selling recently . We don’t want to split the set so initially we’re not going to sell separate pieces , but you can register your interest if you do want to buy just one piece.
They’re all in good vintage condition . The double wardrobe is the 4ft model with hanging space only , and we could find no really obvious damage to show . It’s 122cms wide, 171.5cms high and 55.5cms deep . It did have to come apart to get it out of the house , but it wasn’t a difficult job to re-assemble it . The smaller 3ft ( 91.5cms ) wardrobe is the same height and depth and has a partially fitted interior . There is a small veneer chip to the side at floor level and a slight white bloom mark to one door ( but not unsightly ) . Ask for further photos . The wardrobes are on their original wheeels and the smaller one came out in 1 piece .
The dressing table has no obvious marks or damage and the stool is in lovely condition and comes with it’s original upholstery in great order . It’s shown with and without mirrors as some people buy them to use as a shallow desk . It’s 162cms wide , 71.5cms high and 50.5cms deep .
The low chest has one obvious scratch to the edge if you look closely and the usual minor signs of wear if you look very closely .
IN 1964 THIS SET WOULD HAVE COST JUST UNDER £200 WHICH TAKING INFLATION INTO ACCOUNT IS THE EQUIVALENT OF JUST UNDER £4500 . THE STOOL WAS £12 12 SHILLINGS , WHICH WAS MORE THAN ANY OF THE G PLAN DINING CHAIRS OF THE TIME AND THE EQUIVALENT OF £280 TODAY .

Customers shall receive the same level of consumer protection on purchases irrespective of whether they are buying from a Professional Vendor or Non-Professional Vendor.
Should you have any questions regarding your transaction, please contact the Vendor in the first instance.

If a Customer changes their mind or decides for any other reason not to purchase the Goods before they have been dispatched, they can cancel the order on the Site and receive a refund.
The right to cancel does not apply to the following types of goods, which are non-refundable: items that are personalised, bespoke, or made-to-order according to the customer's specific requirements. If in doubt, the Customer can contact the Vendor via the Site.

Types of returns and responsibilities
Change of mind return
Consumers can return the goods due to a change of mind. Once a return is requested, the buyer is in charge of shipping the goods back to the seller and should organise it as soon as possible. Shipment costs to and from buyers are non-refundable.
Item not fit for purpose
Acting under the Consumer Rights Act 2015, customers may return faulty Goods that are damaged or the listing on the Site is materially inaccurate, misleading, or misrepresents the Goods. In these cases, the Customer must provide photographic evidence to Vinterior and the Vendor or reject the delivery on arrival.
Damage in transit
Vinterior must be informed of any damage in transit. If Proovia delivered the items, Vinterior will then raise an insurance claim on behalf of the Vendor with the delivery company. If the seller organised a delivery, they would be asked to raise a claim with their courier. Once the claim is resolved and any relevant decision regarding the insurance has been made, any applicable refunds will be processed.

Vendors may refuse a return of an item if the Customer has altered it in any way.
Neither Vinterior nor the Vendors are liable for any damages or loss sustained in transit via third parties.
