Georgian Mahogany Wine Cellerette, C.1820

An attractive George III / Regency period mahogany wine cellerette, dating to the early 19th century, of particularly elegant and compact proportions.

The hinged rectangular top opens to reveal a fitted interior divided into six individual bottle compartments, retaining a pleasingly untouched character and rich colour. Below is a useful lockable drawer, fitted with brass knob handles and retaining its key.

The cellerette is raised on four finely turned and tapering legs, while each side is fitted with a particularly decorative cast brass floral backplate and carrying ring, a handsome period detail that adds considerably to the piece.

The mahogany has developed a wonderfully warm, mellow colour with attractive figuring and the minor marks and wear associated with age and use. Both practical and decorative, this is a charming example of Georgian dining-room furniture and would work equally well today as a wine cooler, drinks stand or occasional table.

England, circa 1820.
