Pair of Antique Edwardian Mahogany Astragal Glazed Display Cabinets

1900 - 1920
Description

An elegant matching pair of antique Edwardian mahogany astragal glazed display cabinets of excellent quality, featuring beautifully figured mahogany, delicate satinwood inlay and attractive glazed doors, making them a particularly decorative and versatile pair of antique cabinets.

Each cabinet boasts a moulded cornice with fine dentil detailing above an attractive inlaid frieze, displaying the quality craftsmanship associated with Edwardian cabinetmaking. The single glazed doors feature a distinctive geometric astragal design with intersecting diagonal glazing bars, creating an elegant and unusual decorative effect.

The doors open to reveal three display shelves, providing generous space for displaying porcelain, glassware, silver, collectables or other treasured objects. The shelves have fabric-lined surfaces, while the mahogany interiors provide an attractive backdrop for displayed items.

The cabinets are further enhanced by fine string inlay to the door surrounds and upright supports, standing on elegant shaped cabriole legs with pad feet.

A particularly handsome and desirable matching pair of antique mahogany display cabinets, offering both practicality and decorative appeal. Their elegant proportions and refined design make them ideal for use in a living room, dining room, hallway or study, complementing both traditional and contemporary interiors.

Condition Report

Very good antique condition with minor age-related wear consistent with age and use. The mahogany has a lovely rich colour and attractive patina, retaining its original antique character. The glazed doors and interiors present well, and both cabinets are handsome examples of quality Edwardian furniture.

A matching pair of Edwardian display cabinets comes in dark brown mahogany with glass and brass elements, dating from circa 1900. Each tall piece measures 149.5 cm high, 64.5 cm wide, and 30.5 cm deep, offering slender cabriole legs ending in pad feet and a distinctive geometric astragal glazed single door with intersecting diagonal glazing bars. Delicate satinwood and string inlay ornaments the door surrounds and upright supports beneath a moulded cornice. Inside, fabric-lined shelves in a mottled pattern present an attractive surface for collections. Positioning these versatile cabinets in a living room, dining room, hallway, or study brings practical storage paired with decorative appeal. The rich timber colour and visible patina enhance their traditional English country house character while suiting contemporary spaces. Each unit provides three display levels behind glazed viewing panes, offering a secure home for porcelain, glassware, silver, and collectables.

Edwardian display cabinets from the early 20th century typically feature slim proportions, rich mahogany timber, and geometric wooden glazing bars known as astragals fitted over glass panels.

These cabinets were constructed using solid mahogany and mahogany veneers, float glass, brass door hardware, and woven or velvet interior shelf linings.

Authentic pieces feature dovetail joinery on internal frame components, original brass escutcheons or hinges, hand-cut glazing bars, and subtle age-related character along timber surfaces.

Positioning a pair of slim glazed cabinets symmetrically on either side of a fireplace, chimney breast, or doorway creates visual structure within formal living rooms or dining areas.

Clean the timber with a soft lint-free cloth and apply beeswax sparingly along the wood grain, while cleaning glass panes with dilute vinegar solutions to protect surrounding finishes.
