late george iii scottish mahogany toilet mirror

Circa 1810, late George III Scottish mahogany toilet mirror. The mirror is in a rectangular frame with crossbanded mahogany, string inlay and a stylised pediment. The uprights are turned, block and finish with wonderful bee hive finials on both sides. The mirror is held in position on the side by brass rings which are finished in a circular brass knob handle. Below the uprights is a flat surface with string inlay on the fore edge, and below this a configuration of 3 drawers – 1 large drawer in the centre and 2 bow fronted drawer on each end with small knob handles. Beside each of the small drawers is a lovely recessed panel with a small beading and flamed mahogany panel in the centre. The mirror stands on 4 bulbous tapering feet that look like upside down bee hives very similar to the finials. Good condition, some old repairs.

Georgian Antiques

Georgian Antiques was founded in 1978 by John Dixon's brother Padriac in a small shop at Jocks Lodge, Meadowbank in Edinburgh, with John joining the business after finishing college in 1981. The business grew so rapidly, they couldn't keep up with their inventory needs. Their goal has been to create a one-stop-shop where designers can complete an entire project from antique lighting to antique furniture to accessories. Scotland's largest antiques warehouse is located in a converted whiskey bond in historic Leith Edinburgh. With 50,000sq ft over five floors we offer a wide range of quality Georgian, Victorian and Edwardian furniture, as well as continental and small decorative items. Our stock is constantly changing.
