Antique Edwardian Quality Inlaid Mahogany Wall Hanging Corner Display Cabinet

A finely made Edwardian mahogany wall hanging corner display cabinet of elegant proportions and refined decorative detail. The shaped and moulded cornice is surmounted by an openwork scroll pediment centred by roundel medallions with delicate marquetry inlay. The astragal glazed door retains its original glass and opens to shelved interior display space, ideal for the presentation of porcelain or small objets de vertu.

The cabinet is constructed in well-figured mahogany with boxwood line inlay throughout offering both subtle contrast and a pleasing sense of lightness to the form. The shaped apron and chamfered sides add to its refined silhouette, while the overall patina demonstrates a gentle and well-preserved history of careful use.
