About the Item
Royal House Antiques
Royal House Antiques is delighted to offer for sale this stunning, absolutely massive Estate made desk, Island or pair of Sideboards hand carved in the Thomas Chippendale manor
Please note the delivery fee listed is just a guide, it covers within the M25 only for the UK and local Europe only for international, if you would like an accurate quote, please send me your postcode and I’ll provide you with the exact price.
This is a complicated piece of furniture, it looks to me that it was one absolutely enormous desk that has had the top cut down to be used as two very large sideboards or as one Island. The quality of the carving is sublime, every single piece of this from the handles to the cuts of timber is exquisite
I am selling it as it is in case the new owner would like to use them as two separate sideboards, I can also have a new top made which will be significantly larger and returning the piece to a traditionally shaped pedestal desk
Each pedestal has eleven drawers and one slip writing shelf, one open cupboard and one closed, the desk retains all the original handwear, then handles and locks are present but no keys, they can be made by pretty much any locksmith
In terms of the condition, we have cleaned waxed and polished it from top to bottom, as mentioned the top has been cut down and the join line in the middle isn't a 100% perfect flush fit as it was cut by hand, there will be good honest age and use related patina marks here and there as you would expect, one of the slip shelves has a leather top, the other doesn't
Dimensions
Height:- 79cm
Width:- 139cm
Depth:- 69cm each or 138cm total
Please note all measurements are taken at the widest point, if you would like any additional or specific measurements please ask.
Any questions please feel free to ask before you bid.
Condition
Please view the very detailed pictures as they form part of the description around condition
Please note vintage period and original items such as leather seating will always have natural patina in the form of cracking creasing and wear, we recommend regular waxing to ensure no moisture is lost, also hand dyed leather is not recommended to sit in direct sunlight for prolonged periods of time as it will dry out and fade.

Pair of neoclassical Italian chests of drawers in inlaid wood, XVIII century
Located in Vicenza, IT
This exceptional pair of Italian neoclassical 18th century dressers in wood richly inlaid on the front, sides and 4 truncated pyramid legs are top-quality example of Italian 18th century cabinetmaking. The pair of commodes are originals from the second part of the 18th century (1780).
The front of the pair of commodes is divided into three levels of drawers, two thinner ones at the top and bottom and a thicker central one. This arrangement makes the front of the pair of drawers even more elegant.
On the front of the central drawer stands a large oval with two mirror-image neoclassical figures represented. Rich and complex foliate motifs start from the oval and extend gracefully across the entire surface. Corresponding to the upper and lower drawers, both frontally and laterally, runs a band with inlays depicting classical style garlands with ribbons, cameos and phytomorphic elements. On the side, inside geometric figures created through the combination of various wood essences there are other garlands and recurring elements in the inlays of the neoclassical period.
The pillars are also inlaid with floral and leaf decorations. The four truncated pyramid legs are also inlaid.
These eighteenth-century Italian chests of drawers were exhibited at the Triennale Museum in Milan on the occasion of the exhibition "Il Salone, la città", which took place in conjunction with the "Salone del Mobile" in Milan. We have all the documentation attesting to this museum exhibition.
The dressers are entirely inlaid with the use of different wood essences. The inlaid surfaces have also been pyrographed and burnished and are in excellent condition. This very refined technique allows you to create greater definition of the decorations, giving three-dimensionality and chiaroscuro to the drawings. With a dark background, the elegant inlays create neoclassical designs inspired by the taste of the time and the famous furniture of the Lombard cabinetmaker Giuseppe Maggiolini di Parabiago, who brought the inlay technique applied to neoclassical furniture to the highest levels.
The marble top is contemporary. The handles and mouthpieces of the locks, also original, are in gilded bronze.
The neoclassical furniture of the eighteenth century
The last quarter of the eighteenth century coincides with the affirmation of the neoclassical taste, in opposition to the previous rococo or baroque style, particularly widespread and appreciated in Lombardy. An echo of this transition is visible in Maggiolini's first works, namely rounded chests...
