Victorian Mahogany Mirror-back Sideboard

A nice mahogany inverse breakfront mirror-backed sideboard dating to the late Victorian period and with a slight Arts & Crafts influence.

The stepped mirror back has an arched carved pediment, dentil cornice and carved floral panels. There are two small shelves supported by baluster shaped turned columns with further small mirrors below. All the mirrors are the original bevelled glasses and are in very good condition.

The inverse breakfront top has a moulded edge and three freize drawers above a central section with a wide cupboard door and two single cupboard doors to either side, one fitted with two slides, the other with a shelf and drawer. The arched panelled doors are finished with ogee mouldings and the whole stands on a plinth base. All the doors have locks and come with a working key.

This is in overall good condition for it’s age. There is more veneer loss to the plinth than is usually expected, the polish is rough on the sides and the left side of the top. There is also a drying line to the top and some fade/water marks, however, it is still in very good solid useable condition if you did not wish to get it repolished.

Please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions or for more images.

The overall dimensions at the largest points are approximately?Width: 168cm (66 1/4in)

Depth: 59.5cm (23 1/2in)

Height: 209cm (82 3/8in)

For transportation and moving this sideboard splits into two sections (mirrorback and base).

When buying it is important appreciate antiques have long histories of daily use and as such, over time they gain minor scratches, marks, knocks, shrinkage splits, signs of old woodworm, lifts and losses to veneer, which combine with care and years of polishing to create an individual character and patina. We describe the main flaws and those that fall outside of this bracket but cannot describe each marks separately and therefore suggest you do take the time to request extra photos. We do offer a 14 day money back guarantee if you are unhappy with your purchase but cannot refund the return shipping cost. If you are not sure please do not buy without clarifying or take the view that the only way to have it as near to new as possible is to have it fully and comprehensively restored.

For delivery we use a small carrier experience in carrying antique furniture. Delivery is usually within 31 days and the carrier will make arrangements with you directly. We can provide contact details of other carriers if required.
