The doors retain the original iron door latches and wooden rotating blocks to secure the doors shut. Inside the cupboard is a fitted brass hanging rail; which makes it ideal for hanging clothes.
Condition Report:
This is a fine quality early antique Georgian oak housekeeper’s cupboard, suitable either as a bedroom wardrobe or hallway storage cupboard, for hanging clothes, constructed during the George II period, circa 1750, in good condition. All doors and hinges are in good working order; they close comfortably. The doors and drawers retain the original iron latches and handles. The drawers run smoothly, close flush to the frame. The roof, backboards and block feet are all original. The cupboard has been fitted with a later brass hanging rail, in order to hold coat hangers, for use as a wardrobe (the hanging rail can be removed if requested). The Georgian oak housekeeper’s cupboard boasts its original polish and patination, therefore displaying a stunning colour. The oak cupboard is solid in joint and stands firm on the ground (it does not wobble).
