This Regency folio stand and large canterbury is an English piece from circa 1825, designed in the gentleman's library style. Constructed from dark brown rosewood, the stand displays oversized country house proportions measuring 50.8 cm high, 74.9 cm wide, and 49.5 cm deep. The construction includes three internal divisions with slatted partitions, housed by turned tapering corner supports topped with turned ball finials. The base incorporates turned bun feet fitted with original brass cup castors. Today, this piece serves practical functions in a residential setting, suitable for placement in an empty corner to organise large books, folios, or sheet music. The dark timber finish and architectural form complement traditional interior schemes, while the rolling castors allow for repositioning within a study, library, or living space.

FAQs

Introduced in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, canterburys and folio stands were designed to hold bound music scores, loose sheet music, architectural drawings, or large art prints in formal reception rooms and private libraries.

Cabinetmakers of the Regency period primarily utilised fine hardwoods such as rosewood and mahogany, often featuring brass hardware, hand-turned supports, and brass wheel castors for ease of movement.

Authentic pieces display hand-cut dovetail joints on base drawers if present, hand-turned corner uprights, original brass socket castors with aged oxidisation, and timber displaying natural grain depth consistent with age.

A folio stand functions effectively as a stylish rack for oversized art books, modern periodicals, or framed prints, bringing architectural structure to a living room, library, or home office.

Dust the surface regularly with a soft, lint-free cloth and apply a high-grade beeswax polish annually along the wood grain, keeping the item away from direct sunlight and central heating sources to prevent drying.
