Antique Mahogany Inlaid Corner Cabinet

Antiques : Furniture

 

Beautiful mahogany inlaid corner cabinet. The top broken arch pediment is pierce cut with wonderful inlay design featuring a solid brass finial. Just below is a nicely detailed dental molding trim. There are two glass doors with their original warped glass; inside the cabinet has four shelves also with inlay on the front edges. There is one center opening drawer which is hand chamfered and two faux drawers; we believe the hardware was replaced years ago. This is a two piece corner cabinet and even the back panels on the structure are all dovetailed as shown in the pictures. This would date this cabinet to the early eighteen hundreds. Below the drawers are two doors with inlaid urns. There is a shrinkage crack on the right hand door and this is normal for a piece this age but it does not affect the integrity of the door.
