18th Century George II Miniature Campaign Bureau Chest on Later Chest Stand
Located in Dallas, TX
PRESENTING A GORGEOUS and beautifully proportioned Mid-18th Century George II Miniature Campaign Bureau Chest on later Chest/Stand.
Mid-18th century, made in Britain, circa 1760-1770.
The bureau chest sits on a later stand/chest, that we estimate is late 19th century, circa 1860-1880. It is also British.
We believe that the primary wood in this piece is either Elm or Sycamore with mahogany elements.
Classic Campaign style miniature Bureau Chest, with its ORIGINAL George II brass hardware, including handles on the sides for easy carriage, which is what proves to us, that this chest was made for campaign purposes.
The brasses are GORGEOUS and are classically George II in style, design and construction.
The quality, thickness and patina to the brasses, is what ‘initially’ tells us, that this is a ‘period’ piece and not a reproduction.
Likewise, the dovetailing detail to the drawers, tells us that this was a hand crafted piece and certainly NOT machine made.
The secondary woods appear to be a combination of oak and pine, exactly as one would expect.
The central keyhole escutcheons are FANTASTIC and are in the form of a pair of opposing ‘lyres’.
We have never seen anything like them!
Beautiful natural patina!
The ‘brasses’ look like they have been polished a ‘little too often and vigorously’, over the piece’s 250+ years history … BUT … the bonus of this cleaning is the creation of a rather appealing, '2 Tone effect’, on the patina of the wood around the brasses.
The Bureau has a flat gallery...
