Edwards & Roberts Dutch Marquetry Display Cabinet On Chest

About the Item

An 18th/19th Century Walnut Edwards and Roberts Dutch Marquetry Display Cabinet on Chest, including a receipt of purchase directly from Edwards & Roberts in 1890. Arch-topped and decorated with floral and arabesque Dutch marquetry patterns, this piece features four drawers, all inlaid with marquetry, two glazed doors, and a bombe-style chest base. Two-door examples of these cabinets are also very unique and rare to find, as they are most commonly seen as single-door display cabinets. Believed to be an older cabinet from the 18th century restored or reimagined by Edwards & Roberts in 1890, it is stamped on the top drawer "Edwards & Roberts".
