An Antique Georgian Cheese Coaster - On Original Castors

18th century
For Sale by Opus Antiques
Description

This is a lovely example of a Georgian mahogany cheese coaster. It has well turned handles and roundels to  each of the ends.

A great feature is that it still retains its original leather coated brass castors.

There are no splits to the wood, it is really nice mellow colour.

The cheese coaster measures 44cm w at the widest part x 20cm h x 24cm d.

These were used to put cheese and bread in, and would have been slid down the dining table.

They make a great piece for fruit, nuts or as  a flower display.

FAQs

A Georgian cheese coaster is a specialized tabletop vessel crafted in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries to hold a wheel of cheese and pass it easily along a dining table.

These items were predominantly constructed from solid hardwoods such as mahogany, oak, or fruitwood, frequently fitted with small brass or leather castors on the base.

Authentic period examples exhibit hand-carved joinery, original brass wheel castors, turned wooden handle terminals, and natural wear from rolling across dining surfaces.

An antique cheese coaster functions as a decorative centerpiece on a dining table or sideboard, ideal for holding fresh fruit, mail, or decorative accents.

Preserve the wood finish by dusting with a dry microfibre cloth and applying high-grade beeswax polish periodically while keeping the piece away from direct heat sources.
