Antique English Dentist’s Collector’s Jewellery Cabinet

1900 - 1920
Sold 16 April 2025 · Pareglio & Ayres Antiques Interiors
This “Antique English Dentist’s Collector’s Jewellery Cabinet” found a buyer.

It was listed by Pareglio & Ayres Antiques Interiors. Sold pieces stay on Sellingantiques as a record of what has passed through, and the next one is rarely far away.

Description

This mahogany cabinet, circa 1900, now has multiple uses. The graduated drawers are perfect for displaying a collection of curiosities, a jewellery collection or a watch collection, to name but a few. Made in London by Claudius Ash & Sons, at the end of Queen Victoria’s reign and the beginning of the Edwardian era, this piece was originally a dentist’s cabinet.

It now has stand alone appeal for being a unique piece of furniture, with fourteen drawers, five cupboard spaces and a swing out door, for holding a bottle of single malt maybe.

Most of the drawers, as well as the top surface area, have milky white glass liners and the central cupboard has a working lock and key. A really interesting piece of quality workmanship made from mahogany and easily movable thanks to the original wheels.

Condition: one glass drawer has some hairline cracks and the drop down cupboard door also has one hairline crack but it is solid and firm; the black wooden pull knobs are replacements. Please study the photos as these form part of the description and please ask for more detailed photos to satisfy yourself.

N.B. On the photos there is a reflection effect on the bottom half of the cabinet, which varies from photo to photo.

Date.1900

Size: 92cm W x 35cm D x 158cm H

Antique dental cabinets originated in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, designed specifically for dental surgeries and medical practices to store instruments, medicines, and supplies securely and hygienically.

These cabinets were traditionally constructed using dense hardwoods such as mahogany, oak, or walnut, featuring intricate multi-drawer joinery, porcelain or brass hardware, and occasionally marble or glass working surfaces.

Authentic pieces typically exhibit period-appropriate joinery such as dovetailing, natural material wear, original hardware including porcelain knobs, and makers plaques from dental supply manufacturers of the era.

An antique medical cabinet can serve as a striking statement piece in a study, kitchen, or living space, used to display curated collections, glassware, or art materials while adding industrial and historical character.

Preservation involves maintaining stable indoor humidity levels, avoiding direct sunlight to protect the wood finish, applying traditional beeswax periodically, and cleaning glass panels with a soft cloth and gentle solution.
