Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.
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.

A bow front display cabinet features a convex curved glass front, popularised during the late 18th century and widely manufactured during the Edwardian period. These cabinets were engineered to store and showcase porcelain, glassware, and decorative collectibles while protecting them from dust.

Vitrines were primarily constructed from solid mahogany, walnut, or rosewood frames, frequently decorated with satinwood or boxwood inlays. Glazed panels contained mouth-blown glass, while the interiors were commonly lined with velvet, silk, or linen fabrics.

Authentic Edwardian vitrines typically feature slender tapered square legs, subtle timber stringing, original curved hand-cut glass, and period-appropriate brass fittings. Examination of the timber reveals hand-planed joinery and natural shrinkage marks consistent with historic age.

Position a mahogany vitrine against a neutral backdrop in a dining space, hallway, or living room to serve as a focal point. Curate the interior with contemporary ceramics, glassware, or books to balance historical timber elements with modern aesthetics.

Dust the timber surfaces with a soft microfibre cloth and apply a natural beeswax polish twice yearly to preserve the finish. Clean glass panels using an ammonia-free glass cleaner applied to a cloth rather than sprayed directly on the timber frame to avoid liquid damage.
