Item Description:
This is a beautiful antique English walnut buffet sideboard server. It features a gorgeous shaped pediment with a distinguished large shaped beveled mirror which has age appropriate bit of oxidation and spotting and it has 2 elegant turned columns with attractive balusters. Part of the pediment seems to have been repaired but it is easily overlooked. The top surface is in very good condition for its age and in addition there are 2 drawers, one with dividers, with dovetail joinery that have fancy metal handles and there is 1 spacious cabinet that has a total of 2 shelves including a *cellarette, and they have beautiful paneled doors with beautiful carved designs. One of the handles hardware is missing part of its design and it is separated but it is not distracting at all and can be easily replaced if necessary. This piece may show minor age appropriate signs of wear including scratches and wood imperfections
but as shown it is overall in very good cosmetic and structural condition and it is strong and sturdy.
Other Dimensions:
The countertop is 39 inches high.
Drawers: H3.75 x W22.25 x D14.5 inches.
Cabinets:
Top shelf: H10 x W50.75 x D16.75 inches
Bottom shelf: H14 x W50.75 x D16.75 inches.
*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.
