A superb Queen Anne oak court cupboard with a fantastic colour and of lovely proportions.
In superior original condition and with a beautiful patina. Backboards fixed with original forged iron nails. Substantial fielded panelled and framed sides, original top, bottom, intermediate and back boards. Both upper and lower cupboard doors, with fielded panels in channel carved stiles, open smoothly and close properly on concealed original iron pintel hinges.
The foliate-S scrolls boldly hand-carved and very well executed with punch decorated frieze bearing the initials GA and the date 1705 all original and exquisite. Beautifully turned and aged small drop finials.
Perhaps made as a wedding gift for G.A in 1705 or made to commemorate a very special occasion
From a private home where it is known to have been for the last 70 years, and with some provenance.
A truly superb original example.
Dimensions are (please note that this cupboard is one piece, it does not dismantle):
Width is 55.5 inches, depth is 25 inches and height is 64.5 inches.
For metric please multiply by 2.5

Excellent with original timbers throughout other than one later slim backboard (as shown on our photographs) and one replaced short bottom board. Some old worm holes (long dead and very old indeed) small losses and bruises consistent with age and use. Internal shelves and narrow bead around cornice are 19th century, the colour and detail has been perfectly matched.
