This Victorian three-door wardrobe dates from 1860 and is fashioned from warm brown burr walnut veneer with glass. The piece incorporates a carved cresting on the arched cornice, an arched central mirror door, and two moulded panelled side doors. Brass handles accessorise the interior fittings, which include three sliding trays, three drawers, hanging space, and an unusual mahogany shoebox, all supported on a plinth base. Measuring 256 cm high, 230 cm wide, and 63 cm deep, this large wardrobe provides substantial storage capability. Suitable for use in a spacious bedroom, this armoire organizes garments and accessories while serving as a prominent furnishing. The natural grain patterns of the walnut timber and the traditional architectural mouldings provide a classic aesthetic suited to period bedrooms and dressing spaces alike.

FAQs

Burr walnut veneer should be kept away from direct sunlight and heat sources, dusted with a soft microfibre cloth, and nourished annually with a high-quality beeswax paste.

A Victorian wardrobe can serve as a focal anchor piece in a neutral modern room, paired with minimalist textiles and contemporary lighting to highlight the natural wood grain contrasts.

Authentic Victorian wardrobes typically feature hand-cut dovetail joints on internal drawers, hand-poured mirror glass with slight silvering imperfections, original brass locks, and solid wood groundwork beneath the veneer.

19th-century wardrobes were traditionally constructed in sectional pieces, including a plinth base, separate hanging or drawer carcasses, a central mirror section, and a removable decorative cornice to facilitate transport.

Victorian burr walnut furniture is characterised by the use of highly figured veneer cut from walnut tree growths, popularised during the mid-to-late 19th century for decorative bedroom and dining pieces.
