I have been established as a dealer and antique furniture restorer for almost 20 years.

I have a real love and passion of fine 18th and early 19th century furniture.

As a professional restorer I am always searching for the finest quality and original items but should any restoration be nessesary it will be sympathetically and skilfully carried out in house by myself.

If items are purchased with buy now option I shall do my very best to work with my courier to offer free delivery within most of UK mainland. (Some exclusions to locations may apply)

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.

Wine coolers, or cellarettes, emerged in 18th-century Britain as essential dining accessories designed to keep bottled wine chilled on ice during formal meals. Typically crafted from mahogany to match grand dining tables, these pieces reflected the growing social importance of entertaining.

Authentic Georgian wine coolers were constructed primarily from solid or veneered mahogany, reinforced with polished brass hoops to resist water warping. The interiors originally contained lead or zinc linings to hold ice and prevent water leakage.

Authentic George III examples display characteristic late 18th-century cabinetmaking features, such as hand-cut dovetail joints, boxwood stringing inlay, square tapered legs, and original cast brass drop handles or side rings.

An antique wine cooler works as an occasional table, planter, or decorative storage vessel in contemporary spaces. Positioned in a dining room, hallway, or living area alcove, it adds historical depth alongside modern furnishings.

Maintain the mahogany finish using a high-quality beeswax polish, wiping along the grain to avoid wax build-up. Brass hoops and handles should be gently dusted and kept free from moisture to prevent unwanted corrosion.
