About the Item
English George lll, Linen Press Cabinet, Burl Mahogany, 1815
This Burl Mahogany George III Linen Press is a striking piece that showcases the elegance and craftsmanship of 19th-century British furniture design, with a distinctive style that recalls the work of renowned cabinetmaker Giles Grendey. The design features a blend of classic functionality and beauty, with its rich burl mahogany veneer creating a warm, luxurious appearance.
Key Features:
Upper Section: The top of the linen press features double doors, which open to reveal four sliding drawers within. This innovative use of sliding drawers within the interior not only provides ample storage but is also indicative of high-quality craftsmanship, offering both style and function.
Base Section: Below the upper cabinet, the piece rests on a two-over-two drawer commode base, with four drawers providing additional storage. The combination of a linen press with a commode base is typical of the period, blending a tall upper section with a more functional lower drawer unit.
Original Bracket Bottom: The press sits on its original bracket feet, which adds to its overall stability and classic Georgian aesthetic.
Drawers and Pulls: The drawers open smoothly, all gliding effortlessly, thanks to expert joinery. The original wood knob drawer pulls on each drawer further emphasize the piece's authenticity and attention to detail.
Hinges: The hinges are signed Horne Patent, marking the piece with a traceable manufacturer that highlights the quality and heritage of the piece. The signed hinges reflect the period's emphasis on both functionality and decorative elements.
Three-Piece Construction: This linen press is designed to come apart in three separate pieces, likely for ease of transport or installation, while still maintaining its structural integrity.
This Burl Mahogany Linen Press would make an exceptional addition to any collection, especially for those who appreciate the finer details and craftsmanship of Georgian-era furniture. Its design and construction reflect the elegance of the period, while the influence of Giles Grendey adds a historical touch to its appeal.

the reverse ogee moulded cornice and stylised Greek key frieze above a pair of shaped fielded doors with acanthus carved moulded borders, enclosing three linen slides, over two short drawers, with two long graduated drawers below, on shaped ogee bracket feet,
