Canonbury Antiques is delighted to present this exceptional Period Georgian Glazed Bookcase Cabinet Mahogany 1790, a fine example of late 18th-century English craftsmanship that perfectly balances elegance, function, and historical integrity. Dating to circa 1790, this original Georgian cabinet showcases the timeless appeal of beautifully figured mahogany, making it a standout addition to both classic and contemporary interiors.

This refined antique bookcase cabinet is raised on traditional bracket feet, a hallmark of Georgian furniture design, lending it both stability and visual presence. The upper section features two astragal glazed doors, allowing light to filter through while elegantly displaying books, porcelain, or decorative objects. Opening the doors reveals two fully adjustable shelves, offering flexibility for modern storage needs while retaining the cabinet’s authentic period character.

A particularly attractive feature is the blind fretwork frieze above the doors, adding subtle decorative interest without overpowering the cabinet’s clean architectural lines. The proportions are well judged, making it ideal for use in a study, living room, hallway, or dining space. Measuring 43 inches high, 57 inches wide, and just 12 inches deep, this cabinet provides generous storage while maintaining a slim, refined profile.
