Description:
Here is a stunning quality antique English Regency linen press, constructed from top quality figured mahogany, circa 1820, in good original condition. The top section supports a drop down (detachable) thumb-moulded cornice, above two exquisite figured mahogany doors, with inset rectangular panels, incorporating further mahogany banding to the doorframes. The left door features its original brass strip (a sign of quality) and brass locking mechanism. The right-hand door retains its original working brass lever lock (with working key) and the original key escutcheons and hinges (on both doors). The doors open to reveal a hanging compartment, incorporating a brass hanging rail and wooden pegs fixed behind to the backboards. Below, is a bank of graduated drawers, comprising a two-over-three configuration. The drawers are constructed with fine hand dovetail joints and cock-beaded fronts and the drawer linings and bottoms are constructed from solid mahogany. The drawer fronts retain their original turned brass knobs, key escutcheons and original working lever locks (with key). The outer frame of the linen press is decorated with fine reeded moulding. The press is raised on its original turned feet (which is rare to see, as these are usually replaced with changing fashions or get damaged over time). The linen press also features the original backboards. The linen press dismantles into two sections (top and base) allowing easy access up the staircase into the bedroom. The cornice can also be unscrewed if necessary to gain access up tight stairs or through narrow doorways.
This is a sought after linen press due to its quality construction using fine quality figured mahogany timbers (at this time, England was importing top quality mahogany timbers from the colonies). The linen press is designed in the classic Regency style, with simple, pronounced clean lines and a focus on symmetry.
The linen press has a rich dark red-brown mahogany colour. As it boasts the original polish, it has a fantastic colour and patination this can only be achieved through age and years of care and cleaning it has received.
This item is an excellent investment but also very practical for storage and would look superb in a variety of rooms, especially the bedroom. This item would certainly grace any home. So don't miss out your chance to own a lovely piece of antique furniture.
