George III Bow Front Hanging Corner Cabinet Plum Pudding Mahogany c1780
DESCRIPTION
A fine George III bow-front hanging corner cabinet dating from the mid to late eighteenth century, veneered in richly figured plum pudding mahogany with satinwood crossbanding.
The cabinet has a moulded cornice above a pair of bowed doors opening to a shelved interior. The distinctive bow-fronted form is less commonly encountered than standard angular corner cupboards, giving the piece a more refined appearance while making full use of the corner space. The beautifully figured mahogany veneers are framed by satinwood crossbanding, demonstrating the restrained elegance associated with good-quality late Georgian cabinet making.
The cabinet provides practical storage whilst retaining the clean architectural lines that make Georgian furniture so versatile in both period and contemporary interiors. It would work equally well in a dining room, drawing room, hallway, study or kitchen.
The cabinet retains what appears to be its original lock together with a working key.
 
DIMENSIONS
Height: 113cm
Width: 75cm
Depth: approximately 54cm (measured from the corner to the front centre)
 
CONDITION
Presented in very good antique condition. There are very light surface marks, scratches and knocks commensurate with age and careful use. The interior has been painted at a later date, providing a clean and practical finish. The cabinet retains what appears to be its original lock together with a working key. It is solid, structurally sound and ready for use.

    ABOUT ALSO

    ​

    Thank you for viewing this piece from ALSO Antiques.

     

    We carefully select antique furniture and decorative objects for their quality, craftsmanship, character and individuality. Our tastes are broad, and we’re happy to be led by the piece rather than a particular period or style. Above all, we choose things we genuinely admire and would be happy to have in our own home.

     

    Every item is individually inspected, researched and professionally photographed, with clear descriptions and honest condition reports to help you buy with confidence.

     

    We believe good furniture should have a long life. Choosing antique keeps well-made furniture and existing materials in use, and we favour sympathetic restoration that preserves the patina and character acquired over generations.

    AUTHENTICITY & CONDITION

     

    We strive to describe every item as accurately and honestly as possible. Statements regarding age, attribution, origin and provenance are offered in good faith and represent our professional opinion based on the information available at the time of listing.

     

    As all of our items are antique or vintage, signs of age and use should be expected. Old repairs, knocks, wear, variations in colour and other minor imperfections are often part of a piece’s history and character. Where condition affects its integrity, appearance or usefulness, we will endeavour to make this clear in the description.
