Item Description:
This is a gorgeous antique English 6ft solid walnut Victorian buffet sideboard server. It has a beautiful top surface with a beveled edge and it features a breathtaking backsplash that includes a large rectangular mirror with fancy fretwork around its edge, 2 exquisite fluted columns with scroll bases, a raised beveled surface with foliage and scroll carvings, 2 beveled mirrors, a beveled top and a convenient shelf. The mirror has some age appropriate flaws but they really just add character to the piece and validate its antiquity, circa 1890. In addition there are 3 smooth operating drawers with dovetail joinery that have beautiful brass handles with unique floral hardware. There are also 3 cabinets that have a total of 6 shelves including a *cellarette, and they have beautiful paneled doors adorned with raised beveled surfaces and attractive brass hardware. The center cabinet has removable wallpaper on the shelves but it can be replaced if necessary. The front, including the doors, is beautiful embellished with foliage and scroll carvings and its feet are also adorned with scroll carvings. One of the feet is missing part of its design but as shown it is easily overlooked.
This piece may show minor age appropriate signs of wear including wood imperfections and separations
but as shown in the pictures it is overall in very good cosmetic and structural condition and it is strong and sturdy. This is a gorgeous piece of furniture that will not only enrich your home decor with its presence but will also become a treasured heirloom in your family!

*CELLARETTE (i.e. little cellar), strictly that portion of a sideboard which is used for holding bottles and decanters, so called from a cellar (which in general may be any underground unlighted apartment) being commonly used for keeping wine. Sometimes it is a drawer, divided into compartments lined with zinc, and sometimes a cupboard, but still an integral part of the sideboard. In the latter part of the 18th century, when the sideboard was in process of evolution from a side-table with drawers into the large and important piece of furniture which it eventually became, the cellaret was a detached receptacle. It was most commonly of mahogany or rosewood, many-sided or even octagonal, and occasionally oval, bound with broad bands of brass and lined with zinc partitions to hold the ice for cooling wine. Sometimes a tap was fixed in the lower part for drawing off the water from the melted ice. Cellarets were usually placed under the sideboard, and were, as a rule, handsome and well proportioned; but as the artistic impulse which created the great 18th-century English school of furniture died away, their form grew debased, and under the influence of the English Empire fashion, which drew its inspiration from a bastard classicism, they assumed the shape of sarcophagi incongruously mounted with lions heads and claw-feet. Hepplewhite called them gardes du yin ; they are now nearly always known as wine-coolers.
