Antique Victorian Burr Yew Wood & Walnut Inlaid Glazed Music Sheet Cabinet C1880

19th century
Description

Antique Victorian Inlaid Walnut Music Cabinet

A Fine quality music cabinet in an amazing original condition.

We are delighted to bring to you one of the finest examples of a rare Victorian (circa 1880) music cabinet made from fine figured Walnut. This lovely cabinet unusually features a burr Yew wood border with Boxwood inlays to the top which carries on throughout the piece in stringing form. This simple yet elegant cabinet is in fantastic original condition featuring its original beautiful lightly faded French polished finish and Walnut colour. The cabinet is complete with its original hand floated glass which sits in its moulded framed door that is lockable via its original brass lock and key behind its brass escutcheon. The door is flanked either side by its lovely canted corners which is a theme throughout the piece . Opening the door reveals its canted leather front shelf and triple divided compartment for 78 rpm gramophone vinyls underneath.

We have sympathetically restored, carefully cleaned and waxed this cabinet, maintaining its original patina whilst giving a lovely natural sheen and the item is ready for its new home.

Please note; This item is in fantastic condition for its age as shown by the photographs below. Being an antique item of this age there are obviously marks, scratches and dents, however, we feel that these points are which adds to its charm and character to a piece.

Strictly Vetted Dealers

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

Secure Transit

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.

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

Originating in the late 19th century, Victorian music sheet cabinets were designed to store printed sheet music for domestic parlour performances, featuring internal shelves or vertical dividers and wood veneers.

Craftsmen utilised hardwoods such as walnut, mahogany, and rosewood, frequently incorporating decorative veneers like burr yew, inlaid boxwood stringing, and glazed glass door panels.

Authentic pieces feature hand-cut dovetail joints, period brass hardware, natural timber patination on interior surfaces, and original section labels or brass fittings.

Position the unit in a living room alcove or hallway as a compact storage piece, suited for organising books, vinyl records, or print media beside contemporary seating.

Dust the exterior regularly with a soft microfibre cloth, apply a high-grade beeswax polish along the grain annually, and clean the glass using a non-ammonia cleaner applied to the cloth.
