The Sustainable Choice

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.

FAQs

Originating in the late 18th century and popularised by designer Thomas Sheraton, a cellarette is a portable wooden chest or stand designed to hold wine and spirit bottles. These pieces feature refined Neoclassical proportions, tapered legs, and wood veneers such as mahogany.

Traditional cellarettes were constructed from high-grade solid mahogany or mahogany veneers, often lined with lead or zinc to hold ice and prevent wine bottles from leaking. They typically feature hand-cut dovetail joints, brass side carry handles, and square tapered legs, sometimes ending in brass castors.

Authentic 18th-century cellarettes display signs of age such as natural wood shrinkage, oxidisation inside the chest cavity, brass hardware with hand-hammered or cast details, and hand-planed secondary woods like pine or oak.

A cellarette functions exceptionally well in contemporary homes as a compact bar cabinet, side table, or accent piece in a dining room, library, or entrance hall. Its elevated stand and classic proportions allow it to blend seamlessly alongside modern furniture.

Keep the wooden surface hydrated using a high-quality beeswax polish applied along the grain, and avoid placing the piece near direct heat sources or in fluctuating humidity. Clean brass hardware gently with a soft cloth to preserve its natural patina.
