George IV Period Rosewood Chiffonier or Side Cabinet with Carved Detailing

About the Item

A Fine George IV Period Rosewood Chiffonier or Side Cabinet with Carved Detailing and Ormolu Gallery, of breakfront form, this fine piece is veneered throughout in the highest quality rosewood. It combines fine carved details such as the moulding on the frieze, the floral paterae, reeded ogee feet and the stop fluted columns with the use of gilt brass or ormolu. The doors retain their original gilt brass door panels, of restrained Gothic inspiration, and the pierced gallery to the top which utilises a repeating floral scroll motif. The piece is attractively proportioned and of good, usable size and is an interesting example of furniture of this period. Its sophisticated decoration and quality carving suggest either a London workshop or one of the finest provincial makers of the period such as Gillows. The rosewood has attained an exceptional colour which contrasts beautifully with the pleated fabric lining the door panels. Footnnote: Gillows of Lancaster, founded in 1730 by Robert Gillow, was renowned for creating exquisite, handcrafted furniture that was both innovative and timeless. Their pieces were sought after by the aristocracy, wealthy merchants, and prestigious institutions worldwide, gracing the grandest homes and public buildings of their time. Despite experiencing financial difficulties in 1814, Gillows of Lancaster continued to produce high-quality furniture, and in 1897, the company merged with Waring of Liverpool to become Gillow & Co. Ltd. Today, Gillows’ furniture is highly prized by collectors and antique enthusiasts worldwide, and Wick Antiques is proud to offer a selection of their finest pieces, showcasing their skillful craftsmanship, innovative designs, and commitment to quality.
