Item Description:
This is a gorgeous antique English solid oak buffet sideboard. It has a beautiful top surface with a very nice finish and it has a beveled edge and a lovely backsplash that has scroll carvings. There are 2 smooth operating drawers with dovetail joinery that have traditional facings with distinguished fancy brass pulls. The front of the buffet is adorned with additional scroll carved designs and features 2 cabinets that have 2 shelves, 1 removable, and a *cellarette holder. It has beautiful doors with raised decorative frames and fancy carved designs on the center. They have lock mechanisms but only one door seems to work. In addition it has gorgeous carved baluster legs with block feet and an H stretcher. This piece may show minor age appropriate signs of wear and imperfections but as shown it is overall in very good cosmetic and structural condition and it is strong and sturdy. From the elegant design to quality build this piece of furniture will bring many years of convenience and pleasure to your home.
*CELLARETTE (i.e. little cellar), strictly that portion of a sideboard which is used for holding bottles and decanters, so called from a cellar (which in general may be any underground unlighted apartment) being commonly used for keeping wine. Sometimes it is a drawer, divided into compartments lined with zinc, and sometimes a cupboard, but still an integral part of the sideboard. In the latter part of the 18th century, when the sideboard was in process of evolution from a side-table with drawers into the large and important piece of furniture which it eventually became, the cellaret was a detached receptacle. It was most commonly of mahogany or rosewood, many-sided or even octagonal, and occasionally oval, bound with broad bands of brass and lined with zinc partitions to hold the ice for cooling wine. Sometimes a tap was fixed in the lower part for drawing off the water from the melted ice. Cellarets were usually placed under the sideboard, and were, as a rule, handsome and well proportioned; but as the artistic impulse which created the great 18th-century English school of furniture died away, their form grew debased, and under the influence of the English Empire fashion, which drew its inspiration from a bastard classicism, they assumed the shape of sarcophagi incongruously mounted with lions heads and claw-feet. Hepplewhite called them gardes du yin ; they are now nearly always known as wine-coolers.
