Aesthetic Movement Mirrored Cabinet Attributed to Henry William Batley

About the Item

In an unusual pentagon shape, this fine Victorian example of the Aesthetic Movement is constructed of burled walnut and ebonized wood. Features include a raised beveled mirrored back, turned gallery balusters with finials on top, shelves, a center drawer, and a hand painted and gilded insert with song birds flying among flowering branches on the cabinet door. Scored inset burled walnut panels throughout. All-original fanciful brass hardware. Attributed to Henry William Batley (1846 - 1932), it was probably made by Gillow & Co., an English furniture making firm based in Lancaster, Lancashire, and in London. An interesting figure in England’s nineteenth century Aesthetic Movement, Henry W. Batley was not only an original etcher and engraver but a designer of Aesthetic furniture, wallpapers and textiles.
