A More Sustainable Choice
A More Sustainable Choice
Choosing antique and reclaimed furniture is one of the most sustainable ways to furnish a home.
Older furniture was often built using solid timber and traditional craftsmanship designed to last for generations, rather than a few years.
By giving these pieces a new home, you help reduce demand for mass-produced furniture while keeping beautiful, characterful items in circulation for years to come.

Description
This impressive early 20th-century piece boasts a sophisticated Continental silhouette. The upper section features a large mirrored gallery back, topped with a stepped cornice and ornate carved swags and ribbons. The main body is fitted with a stunning red "Rouge" marble surface, providing a durable and luxurious display area.
The storage is well-organized with two frieze drawers over a double-door cupboard, all embellished with ornate classical moldings, wreaths, and gold-leaf style highlights. Uniquely, the unit is elevated on turned supports with a full-width open lower tier, giving it an airy feel despite its substantial size. This is a high-impact piece of furniture that blends historic character with a contemporary color palette.
Condition
The sideboard is in good refurbished condition with specific points to note:
-
Surface: There is a full-width historic crack to the rouge marble top (see detail photos). The marble remains stable and seated flat within the frame.
-
Finish: Recently repainted in a matte claret/burgundy finish with gold-toned accents. The finish is generally clean but shows minor intentional "shabby chic" distressing and light scuffs from handling.
-
Glass: The mirror is intact and clear, showing only minor age-related foxing to the edges.
-
Build: Structurally very sound and heavy. All drawers and doors operate smoothly.
