Dési van Rhee

A fine example of late 18th-century craftsmanship, this Sheraton-period knife box dates from circa 1790 and showcases the refined neoclassical style characteristic of the era. Crafted from rich mahogany and tastefully inlaid with boxwood, the box displays a gently serpentine front and a hinged lid, echoing the graceful lines typical of Thomas Sheraton’s designs.

The interior retains its original fitted knife slots, a rare and desirable feature that enhances both its authenticity and practical appeal. Subtle age-commensurate repairs attest to its long history and careful stewardship, while the mellow patina of the wood adds to its timeless charm.

A handsome and functional piece, perfect for collectors of Georgian furniture or those seeking a distinguished accent for a traditional interior.
