An outstanding George III Scottish flame mahogany stage-back sideboard with original knife boxes and dating to circa 1800, probably Edinburgh. Highlighted with plentiful boxwood stringing to the front and sides, the stage has a central inlaid tablet flanked by a pair of tambour doors and sits between the original knife boxes still with their original cutlery fittings. The lower section has shaped bowfront top with three drawers above a central arch with recessed tambour door cupboard behind and flanked by a deep cellarette drawer and matching cupboard both with dummy drawer fronts, all with brass oval handles and original locks and supported on six ring turned and reeded tapering legs.

This sideboard has a truly beautiful colour and it is exceptionally rare to find a Georgian sideboard with the original pair of knife boxes. This one is in very good condition, there are some minor losses to the stringing, mainly on the bottom edges of the knife boxes and there have been old repairs to the back in relation to the hinges, there is also some slight lightening of colour which is apparent on the sides of the knife boxes and beneath where they sit. The raised stage back is peculiar to Scottish furniture and was used to great effect to create an elevated display of silver.

The overall dimensions at the largest points are approximately
Width - 65 7/8in (167.5cm)
Depth - 29 1/2in (75cm)
Height to surface - 37 1/4in (94.5cm)
Height to top stage back - 44 1/2in (113cm)
Height including knife boxes - 52 1/8in (132.5cm)
