Fine Antique Dressing Table, English, Walnut, Console, Gillow and Co, Victorian

19th century
Description

This is a fine antique dressing table. An English, walnut boudoir console table by Gillow and Co, dating to the Victorian period, circa 1880.

A striking dressing table for the finest of bedrooms

Displays a desirable aged patina throughout

Quality walnut presents fine grain interest and rich russet hues

Profusely carved to every surface, a treat for the senses

Prominent shield shape mirror sits to the centre with quality, bevelled plate

Demi-lune bombe cabinets to each side, with ornate carved field panels

Decorated bracket supports unite these to the wide, deep dressing surface

Serpentine bow front profile highly distinctive and appealing

Arranged as a central drawer above the shaped kneehole with a graduated trio either side

Each dressed with attractive drop handles over decorative brass backplates

Inset brass locks to each opening — untested, keys absent

Maker's mark for Gillow & Co, Lancaster revealed upon opening the central drawer

Moving to the base, turned baluster supports create an open gallery to each side

A dashing octet of gadrooned glass feet a final flourish to an exquisite piece

This is a superb antique dressing table, adorned with pleasingly ornate detail and the very best of Gillow's Victorian craftsmanship. A treasure for any grand bedroom. Solid joints and construction. Delivered waxed, polished and ready for the home.
