Vintage Design

A superb quality satinwood and marquetry display or side cabinet by Gillows of Lancaster and London c1902. The upper section having a central, glazed cabinet with a shelf. This being flanked either side by an enclosed shelf with fretted back and side, above two small drawers. The middle section below this has a central, glazed cabinet flanked by two cabinets with hinged doors, all with an internal shelf. Raised on six solid satinwood square tapered legs with shaped feet encircling an open shelf, this making up the lower section of the piece. Finely detailed moldings are all of the solid satinwood. All four cabinets with working locks. Both glazed cabinets relined in ivory-colored velvet. Fine marquetry detailing to friezes, frame members, doors, and drawer fronts – hinting to influence from neoclassical revivalism whilst the fretwork detail suggests Japonism. The cabinet’s overall striking and unusual design together with its shaped feet however would place in the Art Nouveau era – a period when designers looked both to the past and to the future in seeking to create a distinctly new style. The piece has two “Gillows” plaques with “To His Majesty King Edward VII” – dating the piece between 1901 and 1903 (when the firm merged with Waring of Liverpool, becoming Waring and Gillows). Overall maximum dimensions are 152 cm height, 117 cm width, and 38 cm depth.
