This commanding and rare Georgian period wine cellarette, or cooler, is crafted of rich mahogany in a magnificent sarcophagus form. Exhibiting beautifully carved details, from the high-relief grapevine motif to the striking lion's paw feet, this cellarette is a marvel of Neoclassical artistry. As practical as it is beautiful, the cooler features six interior compartments for storing one's best vintage.
The wine cellarette was considered an essential piece of dining room furniture and was used primarily between the mid-18th to mid-19th centuries. These delightful fixtures were often displayed beneath a sideboard or side table where dining guests could easily view the evening's selections. They were both stylish and functional, allowing the host to serve a wide variety of wine and spirits directly from the comfort of the dining room while also serving as a cooler, keeping particular vintages chilled if necessary. This exceptional piece, maintained in excellent condition, is a must for wine enthusiasts and collectors.
