Item Details

An attractive Regency simulated rosewood cabinet, circa 1820, of elegant proportions and with particularly appealing gilt decoration. The rectangular top with rounded front corners sits above a single frieze drawer fitted with brass knob handles. Below, a pair of panelled cupboard doors open to reveal a useful shelved interior. The rich simulated rosewood finish is highlighted by fine gilt-painted line decoration and stylised foliate motifs, with further gilt detailing to the distinctive turned pilasters flanking the doors. The cabinet is raised on four ring-turned feet.


The combination of its dark Regency finish, restrained gilding and compact proportions gives the cabinet considerable decorative appeal. At just under 80cm wide and only 33cm deep, it is also an unusually versatile piece, suitable for a drawing room, hallway, dining room or alcove where a deeper cabinet might be impractical.

CONDITION
In good, structurally sound antique condition with wear commensurate with age and use. There are minor scratches, knocks, rubbing and areas of loss to the simulated rosewood and gilt finish throughout, commensurate with approximately 200 years of age and use. Overall the painted finish is attractive and stable. There is a replacement lock with working key.


Overall, a particularly decorative and useful Regency cabinet retaining plenty of character and appealing period decoration.
