Georgian Oval Open Wine Cooler

18th century
Description

A Very Attractive 18th Century Georgian Mahogany Oval Shaped Open Wine Cooler Retaining Good Colour And Patina, With Original Brass Bound Decoration And Original Brass Handles, Raised On Elegant Original Stand With Square Tapered Legs And Original Brass Castors.

It is most unusual for wine coolers of this period to retain their original stand, but that is very much the case with this particular example and the stand itself even retains it’s original brass castors at the end its elegant tapered legs.

The cooler itself is lacking its original lead liner with its replacement being a smaller, lower in height, removable zinc tray which allows it to still be used for storage of bottles or standing plant pots in.

We cannot guarantee that the zinc liner will remain 100% watertight with use, although our investigations have indicated that it appears to be at the moment.

Circa 1770.

Height – 20in.

Width – 26in.

Depth – 18in.

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.
Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.
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.

Designed in the eighteenth century for formal dining rooms, a wine cooler held ice and water to chill wine bottles directly at the table before built-in refrigeration existed.

These pieces were typically constructed using coopered mahogany or walnut staves, reinforced with heavy brass binding hoops and fitted with internal lead linings to hold ice.

Original pieces feature hand-coopered timber staves, hand-cut joinery, original brass bandings with age-related patina, and tapered legs fitted with brass castors.

An open wine cooler works well in contemporary settings as a plant container, a fire log store in a living area, or a decorative floor display piece.

Apply a natural beeswax polish to the mahogany staves to preserve the grain, wipe brass fittings gently with a soft cloth, and prevent standing water from contacting the timber.
