Item Description:
This is a gorgeous antique English Victorian solid walnut buffet sideboard server. It features a breathtaking backsplash that includes 4 luxurious beveled mirrors, a beveled cornice with carved foliage, 4 convenient shelves, paneled surfaces with beautiful foliage carvings, 4 trumpet turnings with block supports and 6 gorgeous turned columns beautifully adorned with carved balusters. The mirrors have minor age appropriate flaws but they are not distracting at all. The top surface has an elegant scalloped front and it has 2 cabinets with a total of 3 shelves and one *cellarette. They have wallpaper lining but it can be replaced if necessary and have beautiful paneled doors with very attractive foliage carvings. Their handles are different but they look good as they are. There are also 2 drawers with dovetail joinery that have scalloped facings with gorgeous brass handles and there is a convenient shelf on the bottom. Its back is missing part of its panel but it can be easily covered if necessary.
This piece may show minor age appropriate signs of wear including wood imperfections and separations and light stains
but as shown it is overall in very good cosmetic and structural condition considering its age, circa 1899, and it is strong and sturdy.

*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.
