£395FREE Shipping on this item. Far afield and rural areas will incur a charge.
A stunning example of an original antique book case or drinks cabinet with beautiful astragal glazing to the doors. The cabinetry is in exceptional original condition. All of the glass in the doors is original too but there is one crack to the left door (please see the close up photograph). You don’t notice the crack until you are very close but we do have to mention it! We could quite easily replace it but for the cosmetic effect it has, we felt it was best to leave the original glass in and reflect it in the price.
This beautiful piece is presented in perfectly aged mahogany with its original astragal glazed doors, glass, lock and key. The shelves are easily adjustable in height by moving the brass supports up or down within the unit. The cabinet is set on superbly carved ball and claw feet. Even the brass locking bolts and hinges are completely original and beautifully preserved.
We re-finished the back in Farrow & Ball Wevet eggshell. This gave the piece a contemporary facelift to bring it bang on trend for 2021. What a perfectly gorgeous gin cabinet? It would be very hard to find a more beautiful example than this?
