Late Victorian / Art Nouveau Kauri Sideboard c1890

Antiques : Furniture

 

This colonial piece of Kauri furniture was produced in the late 19th century. It has three drawers, a recessed shelf over a small cupboard and two larger cupboards, sitting on a plinth base. The drawers have reeded front panels – a beautiful and uncommon feature. The cupboard doors have wonderful hand carved panels of foliage and urns. Measurements are 152cm (60 inches) in length, 96cm (38 inches) in height and 45cm (17¾ inches) in depth. Some restoration work has been carried out on this piece since it was brought over from Australia last year, but care has been taken to keep its original features and patina. Replacement art nouveau style handles are required. It would originally have had a shelved and carved mirror backed top. However, it is still a magnificent piece and would make a fine addition to any home.
