Description: Figural Victorian Mahogany Curio Side Cabinet with an assortment of display
and storage areas. At the top there is a wonderful open pierced carved crest with
full bodied winged griffins whose necks wrap through and then turned away from the
center medallion. The ends of the crest have open scrolling that correspond with
the carvings on the cupboard door. The original beveled mirror on the top has reeding
on the sides and leaf with scroll carvings. There is a small surface and then a larger
surface separated by a roll of thick notched carving. The original beveled glass is
in the doors and sides. There are plate glass interior shelves and the unusual supports are
signed "Anter. " The two back mirrors show some minor loss. The side stiles
are wonderfully carved with heads and vertical tapered fancy columns. There is a
long carved drawer supported by two large urn turnings and a raised panel
backboard. The cabinet sits on large casters. We have the original key for this handsome griffin
side cabinet.
