About the Item

This is an attractive mid-Victorian ormolu-mounted, burr walnut and boxwood inlaid credenza dating to circa 1870. It has a breakfront top with a delicately inlaid and ormolu edged frieze, the central panelled cupboard door is centred with a Sèvres-style painted porcelain plaque of a couple releasing a dove in a ribbon-tied oval frame. It has bowed glass display doors to either side each enclosing a velvet lined interior and two boxwood line inlaid shelves. The panels and glass to the doors are all edged with beaded mounts and finished with boxwood stringing and the whole piece is raised on turned ebonized feet. This credenza is in lovely mellow condition for it’s age, it has faded over the years and the velvet lining may well be the original so is slightly frayed and lifting in places, the lock is missing from the left door and there is no key for the locks on the other two doors however they do close firmly. We could always add magnetic catches, alternatively a good locksmith should be able to cut keys to work the locks. The beading on the doors is not straight in places.
