Why Sellingantiques dated this piece to THE VICTORIAN ERA:
Flame mahogany door veneers: popular cabinet timber from the mid-nineteenth century.
Carved crest mouldings on the door arches: typical high Victorian detailing.
Rounded corners on the cornice and plinth: design style from the 1860s onwards.
Wide vertical pine backboards: traditional secondary cabinet construction.
Shrinkage gap between the rear boards: natural movement of solid timber over decades.

This is an independent date report produced by Sellingantiques using its own proprietary system. The process uses the photographs shown on this page. The system is never told the date the dealer has declared. This report shows that the two dates corroborate.

This Victorian double wardrobe is constructed from mahogany with a warm brown colour and an attractive grain finish. The piece displays a moulded cornice at the top, a simple plinth base at the bottom, and a small vertical keyhole escutcheon centrally placed between two large panelled doors. Each door is decorated with an arched panel topped by a carved scroll crest. The entire cabinet measures 207 cm high, 147 cm wide, and 58 cm deep, incorporating two main sections alongside a removable cornice and plinth base. Inside, the wardrobe provides generous hanging space and a useful lower drawer for storage. This practical period item suits placement in a bedroom or dressing area to hold clothing and accessories, bringing traditional Victorian design to modern home interiors.

Victorian double wardrobes were designed during the 19th century to provide ample hanging space and storage, characterised by dual panelled doors, decorative mouldings, and solid timber construction.

These wardrobes were predominantly crafted from dense hardwoods such as flame mahogany, oak, or walnut, featuring traditional dovetail joinery, brass lock mechanisms, and polished veneers.

Authentic pieces feature hand-sawn timber back panels, original cast brass locks or handles, traditional mortise and tenon joinery, and natural patination along high-touch surfaces.

A Victorian wardrobe serves as a grounding focal point when juxtaposed against neutral walls, contemporary minimalist textiles, and subtle warm lighting.

Dust surfaces regularly with a soft dry microfibre cloth and apply a high-grade beeswax polish annually along the wood grain, avoiding silicone-based sprays.
