DESCRIPTION

A handsome George III mahogany bowfront double-height corner cupboard dating from around 1800.

The cupboard is of elegant architectural form, with a moulded cornice above a pair of bowfront panelled doors opening to shelved storage. The lower section is enclosed by a further pair of matching panelled doors, providing generous storage throughout.

The cupboard is veneered in richly coloured mahogany with delicate boxwood line inlay framing the doors and panels. Its attractive bowfront profile gives it a softer appearance than the more commonly encountered straight-front corner cupboards, while the substantial double-height design makes it an impressive yet practical piece for a period or contemporary interior. The upper section retains a working key.

A good example of late Georgian furniture, offering excellent storage and decorative appeal.

The cupboard remains structurally sound and is an attractive, usable piece with good overall presence.

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.

VIEWING

Viewing is welcome by appointment at our premises in North Yorkshire, close to the Lancashire border. If there is anything you would like to know before purchasing, we are always happy to answer questions, provide additional photographs or check particular measurements.

DELIVERY & COLLECTION

Collection is welcome by arrangement.

We can usually arrange delivery throughout mainland UK using trusted independent furniture couriers, charged at cost. As a general guide, delivery for an average-sized chest of drawers is typically £80–£100. Larger items and more remote locations will incur higher charges.

Most deliveries are completed within approximately two weeks, although faster delivery may sometimes be available. Standard delivery is to the ground floor unless otherwise agreed, and the courier will normally contact you in advance with the proposed delivery arrangements.

Please contact us with your postcode for a delivery quotation before purchasing.

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.
