Object Description
Victorian Burr Walnut Pier Cabinet
Item Code: S27-1135
A fine Victorian burr walnut pier cabinet, circa 1860, with beautifully figured veneers, decorative inlaid borders and gilt metal mounts. The cabinet has a single glazed door with rounded upper corners, enclosing an interior suitable for display, books or decorative objects.
The front is framed by richly figured burr walnut veneers, with contrasting banding and fine inlaid detail throughout. The cabinet is further enhanced by ornate gilt metal mounts to the front uprights, adding a decorative French-inspired quality. The shaped plinth base gives the piece a pleasing architectural form, while the polished top displays particularly attractive burr walnut figuring.
A highly decorative and practical antique cabinet, ideal for use in a drawing room, hallway, sitting room or bedroom. Its narrow proportions make it especially useful as a display cabinet where space is limited.
