1870s Carved Mahogany Cutlery Canteen
A striking late 19th century carved mahogany cutlery canteen, dating from around 1870s, with strong Aesthetic Movement and Eastlake influence.
The cabinet is richly decorated with stylised floral carving, reeded detailing and geometric panel work, with a pair of locking doors opening to reveal four fitted drawers for an extensive table service. The drawers retain their original-style labels for different pieces of cutlery and serving ware, together with flush brass handles.
The fitted interior has been relined in burgundy fabric at a later date, while retaining the original arrangement of compartments.
