FAQs

A pier cabinet is a narrow, low-standing display cabinet originally designed in the nineteenth century to fit under wall mirrors or in the wall spaces between large windows.

These cabinets were typically constructed using solid timber frames overlaid with fine wood veneers such as burr walnut, mahogany, or rosewood, often featuring glass panel doors, floral marquetry, and cast gilt-bronze ormolu mounts.

Authentic nineteenth-century pieces feature hand-cut marquetry inlays, period-correct brass or gilt-bronze fittings with natural age patination, original glass panels, and hand-joined timber cabinetry.

A symmetrical placement flanking a chimney breast, entryway console area, or large central artwork creates balanced focal points while offering functional display space for ceramics and decorative objects.

Maintain the surface by dusting with a soft, lint-free cloth and applying beeswax sparingly along the wood grain, while avoiding direct heat sources, sunlight, and damp conditions.
