Regency Mahogany Miniature Chest of Drawers
About the Item
A Very Good Quality Early 19th Century, Regency Period, Mahogany Miniature Chest, Having Well Figured Rectangular Top Over Three Long Drawers, With Replacement Brass Turned Knobs, Flanked By Elegant Half Turned Outstanding Columns To Each Side, Raised On Elegant Original Turned Feet.
A great example of an 18th century regency miniature chest of drawers. A relatively plain rectangular design is enhanced greatly by the use of rich mahogany timbers and elegant carved columns. The proportions are also interesting as a full size counterpart would be highly regarded due to the low height versus wide width ratio.
The brass turned knobs are replaced, but sit well on the piece and also it stands on its original tuned feet which are very elegant. Almost certainly this was made as a travelling salesmans sample piece of furniture originally.
There is regular debate over whether miniature furniture was made as an apprentice piece, which is when a craftsmen who was looking for a job at a workshop would create something to showcase their talents. Or whether it was made as a travelling salesmans sample piece, which is when a few items were produced as scale models buy a well established workshop as a form of physical catalogue in advance of a travelling salesman’s road trip around the country, for him to use to try and fill his order book with full size counterparts.
It is certain that this is both a useful and attractive piece of antique miniature furniture and remains in good condition, ready to be placed straight into the home. It would work wonderfully on top of a dressing table, or full size chest of drawers, in a bedroom for storage of cuff links, jewellery or similar small but valuable items. It is also just about large enough to be used as a little coffee table, or lamp table, or similar.
As with all items which we offer for sale it has received a natural wax polish in our workshops before being offered for sale to ensure that its in the best possible condition.
Circa 1820.
Height 12in.
