Victorian Gothic Mahogany & Gilt Wardrobe

A very unusual late 19th century Gothic style mahogany and gilded wardrobe. With a moulded cornice above a frieze decorated with a row of arches centred by quatrefoil flowers, the two doors below featuring arched bevelled mirrors with scrolling foliage to the spandrels and flanked by lobed columns, on a plinth base raised on turned feet to the front.

This has a nicely finished interior with two short and one long drawer to the base and with shelf supports running the length of the sides so shelves could be added to compliment or replace the hanging rail which we will supply (hanging rail not shown in the photographs).

Condition:

The mirrors are original and in good condition and have developed that beautiful sparkle/twinkle you only get in antique mirrors, overall good solid condition but as should be expected does have marks consistent with age & use including veneer losses and scuffs to the top and bottom edges of the doors, veneer losses to back legs, a chip out the top back corner on the right side and the bottom front and back corners on the left side.

Please feel free to contact me for more photos, remember to include you email address.

The overall dimensions at the largest points are approximately

Width - 60in (152cm)

Depth - 24 1/2in (62cm)

Height - 94 1/2in (240cm)

Interior - 54in wide x 19in deep x 69in high (137cm x 48cm x 175cm)

For transportation and moving this wardrobe can be fully dismantled.

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.
