An early 19th-century British wooden dressing table, measuring 60 × 42 × 75 cm, with a hinged mirror top, six compartments and a concealed full-width drawer.
Description from the seller
Elegant dressing table (or bedroom necessaire) in veneered wood with a striking, flowing grain in warm reddish-brown tones, and darker wood edging and bands.
The rectangular case with clipped corners has a hinged top that folds open like a book on two brass hinges.
When opened, the lid becomes a dressing mirror: a rectangular mirror plate sits at the center, flanked by two ivory satin-padded panels with button tufting, a detail typical of 19th-century necessaires. A small rectangular metal plaque is mounted above the mirror.
Inside, the compartment is divided into six rectangular sections by thin wooden partitions, designed for storing toiletries, jewelry, or sewing accessories. Beneath the top, a full-width concealed drawer provides additional storage.
The front features a central dark metal lock, complete with its original key and pink tassel; the lock also secures the lid.
The base is supported by four turned legs with multiple rings, joined by a turned central stretcher that braces the structure, and ending in slightly curved, flat paw feet.
Pickup in Rome is available.
For buyers interested in shipping, transport can be arranged through a specialist courier. Costs are the buyer’s responsibility and will be quoted according to the destination.
