Victorian Satinwood Breakfront Side Cabinet Attributed to Dyer and Watts
About the Item
A Victorian satinwood breakfront side cabinet with Wedgwood plaques attributed to Dyer and Watts, the shaped top above a central door flanked by two glazed doors enclosing shelves, decorated with stencilled floral motifs, two pale green Wedgwood jasperware plaques, overlapping ebony discs to the corners and fine quality ormolu mounts, both plaques stamped on the reverse ‘Wedgwood’. English, circa 1860.
The stylised floral stencil decoration strongly suggests Dyer and Watts of Islington. Dyer & Watts (1860-1900) advertised as ‘Manufacturers to the Trade of Ornamental Bedroom Furniture in Hard Woods, Plain Pine, Pine Marqueterie, & Japanned’. In 1861 John Dyer patented a process of imitation marquetry by stencilling onto veneers. The firm won a medal at the Dublin Exhibition 1865 and a silver medal at the 1867 Paris Exhibition where their stencilled pine bedroom suite was later purchased by Empress Eugenie. The wardrobe of the suite is illustrated in Symonds & Whineray (1962), fig. 44 and the stencilled decoration was described in the Art Journal Supplement 1867 ‘as refreshing to the eye as if the woods had been of the rarest and most costly‘. We are indebted to Christopher Payne, one of the world’s leading authorities in 19th century furniture, for his research into this cabinet. It is to be included in his forthcoming publication ‘British Furniture 1820-1920 The Luxury Market’, The Antique Collector’s Club, 2022.

Pair of English Louis XIV Style Breakfront Side Cabinets Attributed to Gillows
By Gillows of Lancaster & London
Located in Dublin, IE
A pair of Louis XIV style gilt-bronze mounted calamander breakfront side cabinets, the Algerian brèche sanguine marble tops above a cupboard door incorporating Japanese lacquer panels, Edo period 17th century, opening to reveal a single adjustable shelf, on later spiral fluted tapering feet.
Circa 1830
English
Footnote:
These opulent English cabinets, conceived in the Louis XIV style, employ an array of exotic materials which when coupled with the finely chased gilt-bronze mounts point to a commission of some importance. The vivid brèche sanguine marble tops were mined in Algeria - a source of exceptional marbles championed by British diplomat and naturalist Sir Lambert Playfair (1828 –1899) following a visit in 1880 – and the highly prized Japanese lacquer panels would have originally formed part of an Edo period chest...
