Salisbury Antiques Centre has dated this Mahogany Breakfront Display Cabinet to the 1880s.
The doors retain their attractive geometric glazing bars and open to reveal a well-fitted interior ideal for the display of books, porcelain, silver or other treasured collections.
The cabinet is raised on a finely constructed stand incorporating a series of drawers with original decorative brass handles. The frieze, drawers and uprights are embellished with finely executed inlaid oval paterae and delicate stringing, all demonstrating the high quality of craftsmanship associated with the finest cabinet makers of the late Victorian and Edwardian periods.
Standing on elegant square tapering legs with further inlaid decoration, the cabinet possesses a rich mahogany colour and excellent figuring throughout. The restrained architectural cornice and refined proportions give the piece a timeless elegance that would complement both period and contemporary interiors.
A particularly impressive and decorative display cabinet of outstanding quality and generous proportions.
