Vintage Design
An Imposing Georgian Oak Estate or Housekeeper’s Cupboard, a rare find that reflects the timeless elegance of its era. Recently sourced from a distinguished estate in the Welsh countryside, this piece is crafted from beautiful oak with contrasting ebonised detailing, showcasing a rich and mellow patina. The cupboard is topped with an inverted breakfront cornice, featuring a central arch that frames four shelves, with additional storage provided by a lower cupboard. Flanking the central section, two large cupboards house further shelving and small inset drawers with charming drop handles. Hidden beside the small drawers, you’ll discover two secret compartments with sliding tops, adding a touch of intrigue and practicality.
The base of the upper cupboards includes two smaller drawers adorned with classic brass swan neck handles. The chamfered corners are elegantly accented with stylized Corinthian columns, while the cupboard doors and drawer beading are highlighted with decorative ebonised stringing.
The lower section features two banks of four graduated drawers, all resting on sturdy bracket feet. This rare and exquisite piece will make a striking statement in any home or hospitality setting.
