18th Century George II Miniature Campaign Bureau Chest on Later Chest Stand
Located in Dallas, TX
PRESENTING A GORGEOUS and beautifully proportioned Mid-18th Century George II Miniature Campaign Bureau Chest on later Chest/Stand.
Mid-18th century, made in Britain, circa 1760-1770.
The bureau chest sits on a later stand/chest, that we estimate is late 19th century, circa 1860-1880. It is also British.
We believe that the primary wood in this piece is either Elm or Sycamore with mahogany elements.
Classic Campaign style miniature Bureau Chest, with its ORIGINAL George II brass hardware, including handles on the sides for easy carriage, which is what proves to us, that this chest was made for campaign purposes.
The brasses are GORGEOUS and are classically George II in style, design and construction.
The quality, thickness and patina to the brasses, is what ‘initially’ tells us, that this is a ‘period’ piece and not a reproduction.
Likewise, the dovetailing detail to the drawers, tells us that this was a hand crafted piece and certainly NOT machine made.
The secondary woods appear to be a combination of oak and pine, exactly as one would expect.
The central keyhole escutcheons are FANTASTIC and are in the form of a pair of opposing ‘lyres’.
We have never seen anything like them!
Beautiful natural patina!
The ‘brasses’ look like they have been polished a ‘little too often and vigorously’, over the piece’s 250+ years history … BUT … the bonus of this cleaning is the creation of a rather appealing, '2 Tone effect’, on the patina of the wood around the brasses.
The Bureau has a flat gallery...

Northern Germany/Denmark
Elm and others
Biedermeier around 1815
Dimensions: H x W x D: 197 x 105 x 48 cm
Description:
Writing furniture in elm and elm burl veneer standing on pointed legs.
The piece of furniture is in two parts. The secretary part is divided into two large drawers at the bottom, the writing flap above and a drawer above that can be used as a standing desk.
The top is stepped in three parts with a clearly raised central section flanked by two solid solid columns. To the left and right of it are two small drawers. fine, sawn-out galleries connect the low sides to the high central section, and another serves as a head finial.
If we open the writing flap, we see an elaborately designed, architectural interior.
The centre is an optically double-winged door. The flanking pilasters support the triangular pediment designed by fan ornamentation and wave frieze.
To the left and right are further doors whose inlay work is entirely in the spirit of the grape harvest.
Condition:
Restored and in good condition for everyday use. In the photos, the colour tone appears much more reddish than it is in reality.
The attached video gives a more realistic impression of the colour.
Two very good objects for comparison can be found in the reference book:
