Object Description
A Very Fine Quality And Very Attractive Regency Period
English Mahogany Side Cabinet, Or Chiffonier, Having
Veined Marble Top Over Two Pleated Cupboard Doors
With Original Brass Grilles Flanked By Parcel Gilt And
Ebonised Egyptianesque Columns
(This particularly attractive side cabinet is bold in proportion
although still relatively narrow making ideal for many a room
in which a traditional sideboard or serving table would be too
deep. The marble is old and possibly original, although this
cannot be confirmed, but it certainly works beautifully with
the piece. The doors typically enclose shelves and the fabric
being the grilles is old but still in reasonable condition. Should the
purchaser wish to change this to a fabric of their choice which suits
a particular scheme then that would be a very easy and
inexpensive job with the door panels just popping out. It is
constructed from a very high grade of mahogany which in tandem
with the quality of craftsmanship involved suggests that this would
have been made in one of the top London workshops of the period.)
