Why Sellingantiques dated this piece to THE GEORGIAN ERA:
Sand-shaded fan marquetry on the door: fine cabinet-making from the late 18th century.
Narrow brass butt hinges: original hanging method for cabinet doors of this date.
Cast brass rosette roundels on the pediment: Georgian Neoclassical brassware.
Fine vertical shrinkage across the pediment veneer: natural movement of old timber.

This George III Sheraton period wall-hanging corner cupboard dates from the late eighteenth century and is made of mahogany with satinwood inlay and brass hardware. The rich warm brown timber shows a polished finish, contrasting with the paler satinwood on the swan-neck pediment, the door spandrels, and the canted sides. The architectural design incorporates stepped mouldings around the base, fluted pilasters, an oval patera with an oak-leaf and acorn motif at the centre of the pediment, brass rosettes, and an ornate keyhole escutcheon on the single door. Measuring 130 cm high, 90 cm wide, and 64 cm deep, the cupboard fits neatly into the corner of a reception room, dining room, or hallway to provide functional wall storage while displaying decorative tableware, books, or ornaments.

FAQs

Furniture from the George III Sheraton period, dating from the late 18th century, is recognised for classical proportions, geometric symmetry, and refined marquetry. Designers during this era frequently incorporated satinwood inlays, fluted pilasters, and decorative pediments onto mahogany structures.

These cabinets were built using solid mahogany and mahogany veneers as the primary timber, complemented by contrasting satinwood or boxwood decorative inlays. Secondary woods such as pine or oak were used for internal shelving and backing, complemented by cast brass keyhole escutcheons.

Authentic period pieces exhibit hand-planed backboards, hand-cut dovetail joinery, and natural wood shrinkage along the panels. Original brass escutcheons, authentic patination, and hand-carved details such as swan-neck pediments or rosette bosses further verify age.

Mounting a corner cabinet in a dining room, hallway, or study utilises unused architectural angles. Combining warm mahogany timber with neutral wall colours highlights the geometric marquetry while providing practical vertical storage.

Maintain the cabinet by dusting regularly with a clean microfibre cloth and applying beeswax sparingly along the grain. Keep the timber away from direct heat sources and high humidity to prevent veneer lifting or fading of the satinwood inlays.
