This is a superb quality antique small William IV carved rosewood Canterbury, circa 1850, in excellent original condition. The Canterbury boasts four stunning splayed and partitions with elegantly turned spindles and floral carved fretwork panels as dividers, which makes it ideal use for a modern day magazine or paper rack. Turned horizontal spindles connect each partition. The front section boasts a stunning open fretwork panel. The item boasts a rich burr mirror matched walnut veneer floor between the partitions. Below, there is a single working mahogany lined and hand-dovetailed drawer. The drawer features the original turned knobs.
