Early 19th Century Regency Mahogany Bed Side Cupboard / Night Stand / Workbox / Wine Table
Early 19th century regency mahogany antique bedside cupboard. This cupboard has good Regency proportions with slender legs and good dovetails. The casters and handles appear to be original. The legs are simulated bamboo which was a popular device at the time, pioneered and made famous by Brighton Pavilion and the Prince Regent. This bedside cupboard is very versatile having lift up leaves each side as, but more unusual it had two drawers one side and a fold down cupboard door on the reverse. A very elegant and useful piece of furniture.

Antique Pot Cupboard / Nightstand
Antique oak bedside cupboard or nightstand. This charming little cupboard is made of a wonderful cut of well figured oak which will look magnificent when the restorers have shone it with beeswax. The cupboard floor will be replaced with antique timber from our stores. Interesting that such a useful and restrained piece of furniture was designed and built over two hundred years ago.

Antique Washstand
Antique washstand made of a really good cut of Cuban mahogany. This useful side table is designed to have a bowl for washing in the centre, but it might be fun to find a way of plumbing it in with taps and drain etc for glamorous teeth cleaning or a posh wash. There are two drawers, one each side of the central dummy drawer. Handles are original turned mahogany. The timber is dry from years of not being looked after, once we have waxed it with bees wax it will be a wonderful rich colour again which can be achieved without totally repolishing. The timber and construction are consistant with that used by Gillow which makes this table well above the ordinary.

Bedside cupboards or nightstands with marble tops
Pair of antique bedside cupboards, or nightstands, with marble tops. The timber is 'Birds Eye' maple, an expensive cut of veneer which has a three dimensional quality when it catches the light. The marble tops are a useful feature as they do not get ring marks when water glass is left on top all night like a polished top.

Pot cupboard and washstand
Very interesting antique pot cupboard and washstand with lift up lid! Very unusual configuration, this must be one of the only ones of this period that works in this way - even though the lift up lid is the sort with which we are all now familiar. This piece looks very nice with flowers in the wash bowl circle in the top, or we can put a glass top on it so it can be used as a lamp table, wine table, or bed side table. This washstand is made of really good quality Cuban mahogany and is in superb all original condition.
