Early 19th Century Regency Mahogany Wine Cooler Cellarette Attributed to Gillows of Lancaster and London

19th century
Description

An early 19th century Regency mahogany wine cooler attributed to Gillows of Lancaster and London, this is a lovely little wine cooler which would could also be used as a planter if a suitable size container could be found to line it. The proportions of this wine cooler are very nice and the design and execution of the leg is especially fine, with a reeded section which is shaped as well as tapered. The lead lining is worn so probably not watertight any more but it does look to be original and there is an interesting plug which is now seized, but might undo with some patience.

English circa 1815

TF038

Declaration

The Fine Art Fund has dated this Regency Mahogany Wine Cooler to the Regency era.

Archival Detail
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.

A cellarette is a freestanding wooden chest produced during the Regency era to store and cool wine bottles within a dining room. Often featuring lead linings and brass castors, these pieces allowed hosts to serve chilled beverages conveniently before mechanical refrigeration.

High-grade dense mahogany, particularly flame mahogany veneers, served as the primary timber due to its water resistance and stability. The interiors were typically fitted with zinc or lead linings to hold ice, while cast brass castors provided mobility.

Authentic pieces display period-correct joinery, turned or reeded legs, original brass hardware, and signs of historical usage within the interior lining. High-end workshops like Gillows incorporated refined mouldings and top-tier flame mahogany cuts on exterior panels.

A cellarette functions effectively as an occasional side table, a dedicated bar cabinet in a dining room alcove, or a decorative accent in a formal hallway. Pairing rich mahogany timber with contemporary neutral backdrops highlights the historic grain and craftsmanship.

Maintain the timber by dusting regularly with a soft, dry cloth and applying a natural beeswax polish twice a year along the wood grain. Keep the item away from direct sunlight and central heating sources to prevent timber shrinkage or veneer lifting.
