Georgian Mahogany Breakfront Linen Press Wardrobe ANTIQUE BREAKFRONT WARDROBE  Georgian mahogany %%alt5%% %%alt6%%
A super quality late 18th century four door fitted linen press wardrobe attributed to Gillows of Lancaster. Featuring a stepped moulded cornice and bead & reel moulding to the four panelled doors it also has a decorative horizontal reeded moulding running across the full width. The centre doors, fitted with a brass rail to the opening edge, conceal five original solid oak-lined slides whilst there are a further three short and two long drawers below, each beaded with rosewood and with turned knob handles (the slides could be removed to create a short hanging space). The two side doors conceal full length hanging space and single removeable shelf. There are brass catches and working locks to each door and a key is supplied for the doors.

This super wardrobe has beautifully figured flame mahogany veneers which have faded over the years giving a lovely mellowed patina. There is a graze above the left door arch and wear/dents to the polish from the doors being closed with the locks out. The bottom right corner of the plinth has lost some veneer.

Please feel free to ask for more photos.
