Description
A fine Victorian mahogany wine cooler attributed to Gillows, of cylindrical form applied with two brass bands below a delicate border of floral garlands, with goat’s mask and ring handles, the cabriole legs mounted with satyr masks above cloven-hoofed feet and the original castors, the oval top with radial fluting centred on a turned, hatched knop. English, c1860
Footnote: This wine cooler has many design elements inspired by a George III ormolu-mounted example attributed to Samuel Norman (1718 – 1779) and supplied to Robert, 4th Earl of Holdernesse, Hornby Castle, Yorkshire.
