The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

A sarcophagus cellarette is a freestanding wooden container designed during the 18th and 19th centuries to hold and cool wine bottles, shaped in the tapered form of a classical sarcophagus.

These pieces were typically constructed from solid mahogany or flame mahogany veneers, often lined with lead or tin, and featured cast brass hardware or heavy timber moulding.

Authentic pieces usually feature hand-cut dovetail joinery, natural age-related patination, original lead or zinc interior linings, and classical design motifs characteristic of the 1830s.

A cellarette can be placed beneath a console table, alongside a sideboard, or within a dining room alcove as an accent piece or functional drinks cabinet.

Dust regularly with a soft cloth, apply natural beeswax polish sparingly once or twice a year, and keep the wood away from direct sunlight and modern central heating sources to prevent drying or cracking.
