I wanted to make this piece as a show stopper and carefully chose the colours for it. I wanted it to be true talking point and centre of attention to the room. I chose electric blue colour for the outside with bright raspberry colour on the inside. 2 bright and bold colours what should never work together - really works on this piece. Its phenomenal colour combination that this beautiful cabinet can take.
I wanted to show with this piece that painted antiques could work with a modern twist. On the outside cabinet blue colour was painted to give texture and naturally aged effect, but on the inside I painted with smooth finish and sleek lines truly highlighting how antique finish meets modern sleek looks.
I used black wax to highlight beautiful carvings and make them pop out using shading of black wax. I added a touch of gold to the carvings, but not to much to take away from the colour combination I used.
Cabinet is in perfect condition and sturdy, comes in two parts for an easy transportation. Made from solid oak and comes with original brass hinges and 4 keys in fully working order. Top half comes 2 toughened glass shelves. Beautiful glass fronted doors and sides also made from glass which makes the cabinet even more interesting even if you sit to the side of it. Between the glass doors you also have glass fronted middle and curvy glass details just above the doors.
Bottom of the cabinet with heavily carved doors and 1 shelf inside, its no middle separation in the bottom half which optimises the storage.
Cabinet stands on heavily carved Queen Anne legs, top of the cabinet is so grand it reminds me peacock tail.
Measures:
H x 205cm, W x 125cm, D x 45cm
As mentioned before top sits on the bottom half and its easy for the transport.

Customer Reviews
This site is like a treasure trove. Gemma, the artist that created my find was very friendly, helpful and personally delivered the chest within a couple of days.
Absolutely stunning set of drawers, loved the colour and the style
Was very impressed when they arrived, very well packaged and on time.
Will certainly be looking for further furniture in the future.
Bench has arrived and it’s perfect. I hope to strip off the varnish and expose the natural wood and a clear sealing wax to keep it tip top. The delivery guys were very good and placed the bench in situ. So 5 stars to them. Timing was spot on to!!!
Just to let you know the sewing table has arrived - it needs a bit of a loving touch but I’m delighted with it! The delivery was as smooth as could be - the man let me know his progress and was polite and helpful when he arrived. Thank you very much, keep doing the good work. Love my sewing table!
We have installed the Mahogany Chippendale Show Cabinet today! I have attached some photos of it in situ. We are planning to have a photoshoot in a few weeks where it will be dressed with glasses etc. I will be sure to send some more over then- it’s going to be a showstopper! It is a very beautiful piece and we are really happy with the purchase.

"I don’t like to match furniture and love mish mash, quirky and odd looking things lol. I absolutely love them. My house is 203 years old and is grade II listed. I think it makes an old cottage come alive and puts a modern twist on it. I love furniture that tells a story or gets people talking at a house party".
