About the Item

Large-scale 19th century English display cabinet executed in the Chinoiserie tradition. Constructed in carved mahogany and conceived as a tripartite architectural façade, each glazed compartment surmounted by pagoda-form gabled roofs. The doors are fitted with branch-and-vine glazing bars arranged in a trellis pattern, framed by pierced fretwork throughout the apron and base. Related pagoda-form cabinet designs are documented in historic Chippendale drawings, reflecting the mid-18th century English engagement with Chinese-inspired architectural motifs. Works of this scale and complexity are infrequently encountered outside major historic interiors and established collections. Intended for the display of porcelain and objects of art, with strong vertical emphasis and controlled ornamental structure. The interior back panels have been newly upholstered in a Metaphorès neutral ecru cotton sateen. This treatment is fully reversible and does not alter the original mahogany structure or integrity.
