George III Mahogany Standing Corner Cupboard

DESCRIPTION

A handsome George III mahogany standing corner cupboard dating from the late eighteenth century, retaining its elegant swan-neck pediment and attractive figured mahogany throughout.

Constructed in one section, the cupboard is surmounted by a moulded swan-neck pediment with central brass finial above a single panelled door enclosed by canted corners. The interior retains its shaped green-painted corner shelves, offering useful display or storage space.

 

The lower section is enclosed by a large blind panel and stands on shaped bracket feet. The door and lower panel display particularly attractive bookmatched flame mahogany veneers, while the restrained proportions make it equally suitable for both period and contemporary interiors.

 

Although altered during its life, the cupboard remains an attractive and practical eighteenth-century piece with plenty of character.

CONDITION

Presented in good antique condition consistent with its age of over 200 years. There are the usual marks, knocks, scratches, small cracks and signs of age-related wear expected from a useful period piece. The cupboard has been adapted historically. The base section is enclosed (no door) and accessed by removing a hatch in the lowest interior shelf, revealing a useful storage void beneath. The interior retains its shaped painted shelves in the upper section, and the cupboard remains structurally sound and ready for use.

    ABOUT ALSO ANTIQUES

    ​

    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.
