SGD 8,000

A beautiful British colonial glass front cabinet in rosewood with a deep cornice consisting of a wide, double band of carving. The frieze is relief carved in an intertwining grapes and vines design which is repeated at the base. The cabinet has double doors with eight beveled glass panels within a rosewood frame; they open to reveal three teakwood shelves. Along the sides of the doors turned pillars with relief carved grapes and vines. The carved base has a gadrooned border and rests on four reeded bun feet.

The cabinet is in good condition and has been lovingly restored and finished to its former glory using a traditional form of French polishing and waxing. The Indian rosewood that this piece has been made of has a naturally occurring dark shade with a striking grain.
