Georgian Oval Open Wine Cooler

About the Item

A Very Attractive 18th Century Georgian Mahogany Oval Shaped Open Wine Cooler Retaining Good Colour And Patina, With Original Brass Bound Decoration And Original Brass Handles, Raised On Elegant Original Stand With Square Tapered Legs And Original Brass Castors. It is most unusual for wine coolers of this period to retain their original stand, but that is very much the case with this particular example and the stand itself even retains it's original brass castors at the end its elegant tapered legs. The cooler itself is lacking its original lead liner with its replacement being a smaller, lower in height, removable zinc tray which allows it to still be used for storage of bottles or standing plant pots in. We cannot guarantee that the zinc liner will remain 100% watertight with use, although our investigations have indicated that it appears to be at the moment. Circa 1770. Measures: Height - 20in. Width - 25in. Depth - 18in.

    Located in Bedfordshire, GB
    A Very Good Quality Late 18th Century, George III Period, Mahogany Wine Table, Having Well Figured Circular Tilting Top Retaining Untouched Colour And Patina With Strung Decoration, Over Elegant Baluster Turned Column With Umbrella Tripod Legs. A simple, elegant and beautiful little table, which is also incredibly functional, this is of relatively typical design for the late 18th century georgian period. Boasting rich, dense, mahogany timbers, alongside a good untouched colour and patina, in combination with the subtle strung inlaid decoration to the edge of the top it has a real touch of class and exudes elegance. The perfect size for an absolute host of spaces around the home, it is both beautiful and practical. It would work just as well alongside a sofa or library chair in the living room to place a drinks glass on top of, as it would in the drawing room with a lamp perched atop, or even in the bedroom as a bedside table. As with all our items this table has been attended to in our worksops by our highly trained, skilled, traditional antique furniture...

  • George III Period Oval Mahogany Wine Cooler
    Located in Lymington, GB
    An oval mahogany wine cooler, George III period, circa 1790. With excellent, unrestored, deep, rich color and patination, and original solid-brass carrying handles to either side. This smart Georgian wine cooler (cellaret or cellarette) retains its original waxed surface and patina. It is brass-bound (of coopered construction) supported on its separate, original stand. Raised on square tapering legs terminating in its original brass cappings and castors. It can be also used as a small side table or lamp table. Comes with a bespoke, clear, safety glass cover. Nb. An antique oval wine cooler of this design is quite rare, and makes a very elegant addition to a dining room sideboard, or an occasional table in a drawing room. By removing the top, some examples of this form of wine cooler were often later converted to be used as jardinières. See Christies, 23rd May 2013, lot 23: a mahogany oval wine cooler sold @ £17,500. Literature: Ralph Edwards CBE FSA 'Shorter Dictionary of English Furniture', Hamlyn, London (Fourth Impression 1972) p. 640: “In late Georgian times the wine cooler was generally a plain mahogany tub hooped with brass and standing on four legs. Mary Kenyon in a letter to her mother (October 30th 1775) wrote that among the furniture in the parlour of her new house in Lincoln’s Inn Fields was a ''handsome cistern of mahogany with brass hoops etc. under the sideboard”. A typical example of a brass-bound wine cooler is shown in a picture by Zoffany, representing William Ferguson...
