Antique Carved Oak Sideboard -- Hand Carved With Original Hardware, Casters and --BEST OF ALL-- Beveled ORIGINAL, UNUSUAL MARBLE
From Neville Plantation Estate -- 1890-1900s Era -- LARGE Piece!
This piece is an all-original and stop-you-in-your-tracks plantation style hand-carved sideboard/cupboard with original hardware, casters and HEAVY original marble slab. The piece is 100% authentic, with its original working drawers intact, original fasteners and hand-crafted accents -- ALL complete and right. It comes from a Neville Plantation outbuilding emptied in the 1990's when I acquired the property, where it had been stored for many decades.
It is a plantation classic piece from the late 1800's and features a stunning "look," with striking proportions and wonderful carving work on both the exterior and the accents. BUT, THE HIGHLIGHT OF THE SIDEBOARD IS THE ORIGINAL MARBLE WITH ITS UNUSUAL DETAILS AND COLORS --See the pictures! You will NOT see marble like this today!
The construction is very solid. This was NOT a cheap "knock-off" -- not back in the day and not now.
The photos are provided to demonstrate the condition of this splendid old sideboard, which was retrieved from a barn, after all! It has the marks of that service BUT is still absolutely SOLID IN EVERY RESPECT.
I have cleaned out the contents, dusted it off inside and out but have not otherwise tried to clean it. Even in its current condition, the oaken wood remains very attractive and the crafting of the carving work--coupled with that unusual original marble -- just knocks you out, honestly. This is a unique and lovely piece from "back in the day." All interior drawers slide in and out beautifully and the hand-crafted dovetailing is shown in the pictures. The wood grain is just worn and lovely, possessing a great old patina -- especially after a proper reconditioning. The locking hardware still appears to work but the key to the piece has been lost along its journey somewhere. Replacements are easily found on the web, though.
MEASUREMENTS and DETAILS:
The sideboard has very appealing proportions, especially for those of us who dig these old plantation pieces. It is perfect as a functional item or would make an accent piece that would catch everyone's attention.
75.5" tall, 55" wide, 26" deep. THIS IS A SUBSTANTIAL PIECE!
100% all original. The drawers/doors slide easily open and closed JUST as they should, all connections and joints tight and AOK and all hardware/marble is original and right. VERY COLLECTIBLE AND PRICED RIGHT.
