About the Item
A very beautiful elm corner cupboard made by skilled hands in c. 1800 and retaining all original timbers including original shaped shelves and hand hewn backboards.
Fabulous well developed colour and patination to the elm, beautiful natural grain. The cabinet maker has chosen the wood with care and the fielded panels in upper and lower door both have wonderful matching swirls of rich burgundy and chocolate across the fronts – each thickly cut board with this patterned grain centralised and repeating. The upper fielded panel set within a carved peaked frame.
The interior has been painted in a lovely chalk blue. It was usual to paint the interiors of these cupboards for easy cleaning and hygiene. There are some old cup rings and some wear to the painted surface.
With stepped ogee original cornice and well sweetheart plinth. The cupboard is in a single piece with long oak backboards fixed with blacksmith forged nails.
There are some small nibbles to the flanking edges – as shown in our pictures – and an old spliced in repair to the lower right hand outer edge. The upper door retains its original escutcheon and old iron lock. The lower door has a very slight warp which does not affect function, will not move any further, and is not noticeable except on close inspection.
A really good example of a late Georgian corner cupboard, rare in solid elm, very usable and of impressive proportions. Offering a lot of robust storage space on original shaped and solid shelves.
This cupboard’s rich colour and deep patina will light up any room and will work equally well with modern or antique furnishings.
Dimensions are:
Height 81.75 inches (6ft 8 inches or 208 cms). Width 38.5 inches (98 cms). Depth 17 inches (43 cms).
A diagram showing the corner shape and lengths at sides is included in my photographs.

Primitive 18th Century Irish Sold Elm Cupboard C. 1750
Located in Heathfield, GB
A most unusual and characterful solid elm cupboard, a primitive cottage piece made in around 1750 and probably Irish.
With substantial fielded panel and framed doors with applied Elm mouldings which create a lozenge shape to each panel. The flanks reeded with carved pinwheel above and the deep frieze with deep channel carved decoration.
The doors open to reveal a carved arched show frame with matching reeded columns, large quarter pinwheels and a central scroll - again in solid elm. There are two original elm shelves within and both sides are formed from a pair of thickly cut and substantial elm boards. The top boards are original also.
This cupboard was originally built in situ, the back of it was formed by the wall in a cottage. When moved backboards and a secondary base board has been added this sits on the original planked elm base and could be removed if not required.
The cupboard has old worm holes (the worm has been fully and properly treated and is long since dead) and there are some losses, small chips and wear. The right hand door has a warp as can be seen as there is some slack in the upper hinge – the H hinges...
