19th century

Description

A beautiful and scarce Regency Mahogany Linen Press in rare, smaller proportions.

A piece I searched high and low to find for my own bedroom. The colour is exceptional, rich and warm with wonderful depth. Inlaid panelled doors open to reveal fitted slides above tow short and two long drawers with striking lion ring handles, all framed by elegant turned columns and wonderful dentil cornicing.

The piece is extremely versatile due to its smaller size. I used it as a TV cabinet and clothes storage by removing two of the lower slides for the television to stand. All of the original slides are present and correct.

Condition wise, the piece shows age-related wear with minor old scratched, bumps and bruises, and small areas of loss, entirely in keeping with a piece of this age.
