About the Item

This very nice Georgian dumbwaiter has excellent old color and patina. The bold yet simple feet ending in sharp points and the deep and well-turned urn and ring decorative upright support exemplifies the classical timeless and desirable nature of fine English Georgian furniture. The three shelves independently rotate for service or display and have a nice deep dishing with a fine rim lip to prevent items from slipping off. Dumb waiters were designed to hold plates, desserts, wines permitting parties to continue after servants were dismissed thus the name given.
