Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

A cellarette is a small wooden chest or cabinet designed to hold wine or spirit bottles. Popularised in the 18th century for formal dining rooms, these containers often featured zinc or lead linings to hold ice for cooling beverages.

18th-century cellarettes were predominantly crafted from dense hardwoods such as mahogany or walnut, featuring brass handles, keyhole escutcheons, and internal metal linings to prevent moisture damage.

Authentic George II pieces feature hand-cut dovetail joinery, hand-carved bracket feet, period brass hardware, and dense cuban mahogany with natural age-related patination.

A cellarette functions well as an accent side table or standalone storage chest in a living room, hallway, or study, pairing classic timber tones with contemporary upholstery.

Keep timber surfaces clean by dusting with a soft, dry cloth and applying natural beeswax annually. Position the piece away from direct heat sources and sunlight to avoid wood contraction and finish fading.
