English 19th Century Rosewood & Inlay Jewelry Box
$800.007"H x 11.88"W x 9.25"D
Dimensions: 7” H x 11 ⅞” W x 9 ¼” D
A darling, Georgian-style jewelry box from 19th century England made of rosewood meticulously inlaid with scrolling foliate and floral motifs of contrasting satinwood and bone. This rectangular box has flat sides though animated by the undulations of the exotic wood and on the lid, stylized marquetry of wispy botanicals adds further intrigue and mystery around the contents. The interior is thoughtfully organized as a removable tray divided into sections wrapped in cerulean blue satin to protect various jewelry pieces and silver leaf gilding. A small oval mirror in the lid is surrounded by ruched satin of the same color. Below are two (locking) doors which swing out to reveal a shallow drawer of three sections, also padded in the same vibrant satin. One key included. We believe this item to be in good antique condition considering its age. Please view the detailed image gallery for the current condition and message us with any questions.

Dimensions: 31 ½” H x 44 ¾” W x 51 ½” D
A very unique Georgian-style, Chinoiserie-inspired octagonal-shape center table from 19th century England with a painted frame of cream-white and tan marble top.

English 18th Century Pair of George III Sidechairs
$1,200.0033"H x 18.50"W x 17.25"D
Dimensions: 33” H x 18 ½” W x 17 ¼” D
A handsome pair of carved oak George III style chairs from the 18th century. Look closely to appreciate the elegantly carved splats on the seat back and how they emulate the silhouette of Corinthian columns. Like most chairs of the Georgian period, the drama of the seat backs is balanced with generous proportions of the actual seats, which in these examples widen at the front and are carved with a shallow dip for comfort. Legs are mostly square and straight contributing to the overall solidity of the design both in a structural and visual sense. Cleaned and polished with a French paste wax, please view the detailed images to see the current condition. Sold as a pair.
Seat height: 17 ¼”

Dimensions: 39 ⅞” H x 72 ¼” W x 26 ¼” D
A circa 1780 English oak “settle bench” (hall bench) of stately carved details.

The removable bench cushion is upholstered in soft green and ivory foliate pattern resting on railroaded wood stretchers for support. The seat filling is densely packed with natural fibers of uncertain equine (horse hair) or vegetal origin. Note that the fabric is in poor condition with stains and discoloration.
