About the Item

This English satinwood Adams style kidney shaped vanity is an exquisite example of fine craftsmanship and timeless elegance. Expertly constructed, the vanity showcases the distinctive kidney form, a hallmark of neoclassical design. The rich satinwood grain is beautifully complemented by hand-painted floral decorations, adding an air of sophistication and artistry to the piece. The painted details feature delicate garlands, classical motifs, and vibrant floral sprays, exemplifying the refined aesthetic of the Adams period. The vanity is designed with an abundance of storage, including multiple drawers fitted with original brass pulls, making it as functional as it is elegant. Its curved form and raised legs with carved stretcher bases enhance its architectural presence, while the warm patina of the wood underscores its antique character. Perfect for a dressing room, bedroom, or formal sitting area, this piece blends seamlessly into a variety of design schemes, from antique and traditional interiors to Hollywood Regency and mid-century modern spaces seeking a bold neoclassical accent. A true statement of craftsmanship and luxury, this vanity is both a collector’s treasure and a practical furnishing. Measures 31 tall x 52.5 wide x 26 inches deep. Needs keyplate and minor detailing.
