Description

A late Victorian mahogany shaving stand, crafted in the elegant Regency Revival style. The circular double-sided mirror is set within a mahogany frame, with one side offering standard reflection and the other magnification. It is mounted on an adjustable brass support, the height controlled by a finely carved wooden knob to the stem.

Below, a rotating circular platform rests on a turned column with a fluted baluster, standing on cabriole tripod legs with scroll feet. A versatile and particularly decorative piece for a bedroom or dressing room.

Presented in very good antique condition with a deep, even colour and mellow patina. All adjustments operate smoothly. Structurally sound, clean and ready to place in the home.

English, circa 1890.

FAQs

Shaving stands gained popularity during the 19th century as dedicated pieces of furniture for gentlemens morning grooming routines, reflecting the eras emphasis on personal hygiene and tailored presentation.

Cabinet makers typically used dense hardwoods such as mahogany or walnut, often incorporating brass adjustable fittings, swivel mechanisms, and occasionally small inset bowls or trays for holding soap and razors.

Authentic pieces generally exhibit traditional joinery techniques, hand-turned wooden pedestals, aged brass hardware with natural patina, and genuine foxing or silver oxidisation on the original mirror glass.

This piece works effectively as an occasional accent table in a sophisticated study, a dressing room, or an eclectic hallway, where its vertical silhouette adds height and historic character.

Maintain the wood by applying microcrystalline wax periodically, avoiding direct sunlight to prevent fading, and dusting gently with a dry, soft cloth while keeping brass components unpolished to preserve their historic finish.
