A Fine 19th Century Georgian Style Inlaid Mahogany Tantalus, U.K. Circa 1860
About the Item
A very handsome and finely proportioned 19th century inlaid mahogany Tantalus in the form of a Georgian side cabinet, showing a richly figured & finely constructed mahogany case with an ebonized strung top & cabinet doors fitted with a functioning locking mechanism & key, opening to an interior fitted for 3 decanters and raised overall on a base showing a carved serpentine apron braced by 'French' bracket feet. Remnants of an old paper label referencing 'Punch' affixed to the interior surface of the base.
(The design & form of this particular Tantalus appears to be quite unique if not rare, in that I have found no other examples either past or present to compare it to).
IMPORTANT NOTE: For all interested U.S. & Overseas clients, we are currently in the process of establishing a means to expedite the process of obtaining the necessary CITES export permit required to ship items constructed of mahogany - whether in part or in whole, to both United States & overseas clients. That being said, at this point it may take upwards of several weeks or possibly months to obtain the necessary CITES Export permit.
