Description
Offered here is this Amazing Jacobean Revival Breakfront Cabinet. I am unsure of the age of the cabinet, but I would guess that it dates to the early to mid-19th Century. It is made of what I believe is walnut, and has hand crafted, pressed, and hammered copper panels in the doors, drawer fronts, and top molding. It has lion head accents in both the copper panels and the wood, as well as detailed carved accents and brass rings hanging from several of the lion heads. There are a couple of the wooden lion heads that are damaged, with the lower jaw and brass ring broken off and missing. There is one brass ring still present with the cabinet, that could possibly be re-attached. The wood on the inside of the drawer is beginning to split at the back bottom, as can be seen in the photos. The split has not yet compromised the integrity of the drawer. The drawer is joined with hidden dovetail joints. The front face on the drawer on the left side is also beginning to split. The entire piece is 6’ tall, 44.5” wide across the top, 42” wide across the top surface of the bottom cabinet, which stands at 29.5” tall, and is 2’ deep, with the top of the cabinet being 14” deep. There are some small areas of damage to the front finish of the top portion of the cabinet, as can be seen in the photos. These areas of damage are shallow, and could easily be stained to match and blend in. The cabinet wood is also beginning to split at some of the side panels, but the structural integrity of the entire piece is exceptionally good. It is an amazing, incredibly old piece with rare and beautiful details that make is a must have for any antique collection.
