18th century
Description

The well-figured mahogany bow-front top above a central frieze drawer, flanked by two deep drawers, the left-hand drawer retaining a removable fitted bin. The drawer fronts are finely banded in purpleheart and retain their original brass oval plate handles and locks, the central drawer fitted with its original brass swan-neck handles. Raised on elegant square tapering legs terminating in the original spade feet.

A particularly unusual example owing to its rare compact proportions, displaying well-figured mahogany veneers with attractive purpleheart banding throughout.

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, George III bow-front sideboards are characterised by their convex curved front profile, fine mahogany veneers, and functional layout featuring central drawers flanked by deep cupboards or side drawers.

Cabinetmakers primarily utilised solid and veneered mahogany, often incorporating exotic wood crossbanding such as purpleheart, tulipwood, or satinwood, alongside solid oak drawer linings and brass hardware.

Authentic period pieces feature hand-cut dovetail joints, oak or pine secondary drawer timbers, period-correct brass hardware with hand-chased details, and subtle natural age-related timber shrinkage.

Position the piece in an entryway or dining space, pairing its rich mahogany tones with modern abstract artwork, sculptural ceramic accessories, or clean-lined lighting to create a balanced contrast.

Dust regularly with a dry microfibre cloth and apply a high-quality beeswax polish once or twice a year, keeping the timber positioned away from direct heat sources and sunlight to prevent drying or split formation.
