This George III mahogany linen press was made circa 1810.
This linen press is made in the usual 2 sections. The top section consisting of a 2-door cupboard fitted with sliding trays.

The doors of the top panels are in well selected figured mahogany cross-banded and with arched drop corners. Above the doors is the flared cornice with a finely carved Greek key pattern design running around.
