Here is an example of a very good quality small antique honey colour mahogany George III two-door Linen Press cupboard, circa 1780 - 1820. The linen press features two solid mahogany locking door moulded panels, which sit below a beautiful protruding moulded cornice. The doors feature a working lock and key. Below, the two oak lined graduated drawers in the base are hand dovetailed and cock beaded – this is a good sign of quality. The base also features the very old replacement brass Regency oval plate handless. The press features lovely proportioned original bracket feet. This is a sought after linen press due to its practical size; it does not stand too tall like other linen presses allowing it to fit in most rooms. This press boasts a warm mahogany honey colour. The press dismantles into two sections allowing easy access up the staircase into the bedroom. We can fit for free of charge a hanging rail if it is to be used as a wardrobe. It would be ideal as a hanging wardrobe or even a TV cabinet in the living room.
