Popularised in the early 19th century, a cellarette is a timber chest built to hold wine bottles, often shaped like a classical sarcophagus with angled sides and carved feet.

These pieces were primarily crafted from mahogany or rosewood and were often fitted with interior zinc or lead linings to retain temperature and contain spills.

Period pieces display hand-cut dovetail joinery, flame mahogany veneers, period-appropriate lock mechanisms, and hand-carved details such as gadrooned moulding or lion paw feet.

A cellarette functions as an accent storage piece in a dining room, hallway, or living space, positioned independently or alongside complementary period sideboards.

Position the cellarette away from direct sunlight and artificial heat sources, dust regularly with a clean microfibre cloth, and apply beeswax annually to preserve the timber finish.
