Victorian Mahogany Wardrobe / Compactum
 
This Victorian mahogany compactum wardrobe is a true testament to the craftsmanship and design of its era. The wardrobe stands tall and proud, with a central full-length mirrored door that not only adds a sense of space but also serves as a functional mirror for your daily use. The mirror itself, though aged, retains its clarity and offers a beautiful reflective surface that enhances the overall aesthetic of the wardrobe.
 
Flanking the mirrored door are two elegantly panelled doors, which open to reveal a carefully considered storage layout. The left-hand side of the wardrobe features four large sliders, ideal for hanging or organizing clothing, while the two graduated drawers – two short ones above two long ones – offer a versatile space for folded garments, accessories, or other essentials. The drawers are neatly fitted with decorative metal swank neck handles, which add a refined touch of detail to the piece.
 
The right-hand side of the wardrobe boasts a pull-out clothes rail, which is perfect for hanging garments such as coats, suits, or dresses, while the nine peg hooks provide additional storage for accessories, hats, or scarves. This feature makes the wardrobe incredibly versatile, catering to various storage needs, from hanging delicate items to stowing away larger pieces of clothing.
 
Despite its age, the wardrobe retains remarkable sturdiness. While there are some visible signs of wear – including a missing piece of wood from the left-hand side rear panel, a few chips or dings here and there, and some repairs to the hinges where the doors have been re-hung – these minor imperfections only add to its charm and character. They are indicative of the wardrobe’s long history and are not structural issues, as the piece is still exceptionally solid and functional.
 
The warm, rich mahogany wood has developed a beautiful patina over time, giving the wardrobe a sense of history and depth that cannot be replicate...
