Antique George III Mahogany Wine Cooler/Lamp Table on Stand
Description
A fine late 18th-century George III mahogany wine cooler/lamp table of elegant sarcophagus form raised on its original tapering pedestal stand. The well-figured mahogany body displays rich colour and fine patina with moulded edges and original brass ring handles to either side.

The cooler is supported on a turned column and triform base with splayed legs terminating in brass castors, typical of late Georgian design.
