George III Brass Banded Mahogany Wine Cooler Cellarette W/ Liner & Fine Inlay

Large George III Mahogany Cellarette / Wine Cooler – 18th Century Antique from Sussex 📜 Provenance – George III Mahogany Sarcophagus Cellarette, England, circa 1800 Sourced from a distinguished Sussex estate with longstanding ties to the Georgian period, this exceptional late 18th-century cellarette embodies the refined tastes of Regency-era English domestic design. Crafted circa 1800, the piece showcases rich, figured mahogany with a deep, lustrous patina developed over two centuries of continuous care and ceremonial use. This cellarette was likely commissioned as part of a broader dining suite, intended to hold wines or spirits with both grandeur and discretion. Its form — inspired by Roman sarcophagi — reflects the classical influences prevalent in George III design. The original interior tin lining remains intact, a rare feature that underscores its authenticity and historical integrity. Elevated on its original tapered legs and mounted with brass casters, the piece retains its original lion mask side handles, further articulating its status as a formal and functional object of significance. The substantial scale and sculptural quality allow it to serve equally as an antique wine cooler or statement console. Evidence of a professional period repair to the top is visible and has been conserved to museum standards without compromising structure or surface character. The patina and minor wear are consistent with age and commensurate with a legacy object of this period.
