Object Description

A beautiful set of antique mahogany Georgian style cupboard doors with French polish finish; two more sets available under Stock No. 34258 and 34254. These doors are just part of a series of architectural elements reclaimed from Worth Estate, West Sussex.

Though these reclaimed cupboard doors date from the Victorian era, they are very much in-keeping with earlier Georgian styles. You can just imagine them as part of a country house influenced by the designs of Robert Adam.

Expertly made, these cupboard doors are in excellent condition, the finish and joinery a testament to the skills of their maker. Each narrow door is made from solid mahogany with three raised and fielded panels to the front, accentuated by egg and dart moulding.

Ready to fit into your home or project, these beautiful cupboard doors would look stunning as part of a mahogany interior. Alternatively, they could be used as period features of contemporary setting, the French polish finish and panelled fronts a timeless feature of any space.

Provenance

Dating to circa 1900, these doors were reputedly part of the original Paddockhurst House on the Worth Estate, West Sussex when it was in the ownership of the Cowdray family. When Weetman Dickinson Pearson, later Viscount Cowdray, acquired the estate in 1894, he commissioned British architect, Sir Aston Webb, to remodel the house.

By the end of the 19th century, Sir Aston Webb (1849-1930) was well-known and highly regarded, having designed the entrance of the V&A Museum in 1891. He later designed the façade of Buckingham Palace in 1913 as well as other notable commissions in London and across Britain.

Object Condition

Good structural condition. French polish finish. Fitted with original door hardware, original hinges and locks (no keys). Reverse side doesn’t have moulding. Rebated. Very light marks and scuffs to the finish in places.
