Description:
Here is a stunning quality antique English Regency linen press, constructed from top quality flame mahogany, satinwood and ebony, circa 1820, in good original condition. The top section supports a drop down (detachable) protruding banded cornice, above two exquisite flame mahogany doors, decorated with exquisite quality diagonal mirror matched veneers encompassing inset oval panels, decorated with satinwood cross-banding, flanked by further satinwood & ebony string inlay. The right door retains its original brass strip (a sign of quality) and brass locking mechanism. The right-hand door features the original working lever lock (with working key). The two doors open up to reveal an open storage area, fitted with a hanging pole, for coat hangers. Below, is a bank of graduated drawers, comprising a two-over-three configuration. The drawers are constructed with fine hand dovetail joints the drawer linings and bottoms are constructed from solid mahogany. The drawer fronts feature period replacement Regency brass oval handles & back plates. The key escutcheons, along with the original brass lever locks (with working key) are all original. The drawer fronts are decorated with mahogany cross-banding and cock-beading.

The linen press is raised on its original splayed feet (which is rare to see, as these are usually replaced with changing fashions or get damaged over time) and is adorned with an elegant ebonized fleur-di-lis motif. The linen press also features the original backboards. The linen press dismantles into two sections (top and base) allowing easy access up the staircase into the bedroom.

This is a sought-after linen press due to its quality construction using fine quality flame mahogany timbers (at this time, England was importing top quality mahogany timbers from the colonies). The linen press is designed in the classic Regency style, with simple, pronounced clean lines and a focus on symmetry. As it boasts the original polish, it has a fantastic colour and patination this can only be achieved through age and years of care and cleaning it has received.

This item is an excellent investment but also very practical for storage and would look superb in a variety of rooms, especially the bedroom. This item would certainly grace any home. So, don't miss out your chance to own a lovely piece of antique furniture.
