This section of the website concentrates on English and European cabinet furniture
from mainly the late 17th, 18th and early 19th century. The collection is unrivalled
and extensive. Mallett specialises in cabinet furniture including Queen Anne bachelors
chests as well as magnificent late 17th, early 18th century bureau bookcases; later
George II and George III chests of drawers, and case furniture. Our furniture is
crafted from the finest woods, particularly walnut and mahogany and towards the
later 18th and early 19th century more exotic woods are used to create some of our
most beautiful pieces. Typically Thomas Sheraton in particular used these woods
such as satinwood, rosewood, harewood and burr woods to create highly refined neo
classical designs which were much lighter in concept than the previous designs of
Georgian periods.
Mallett’s collection displays some of the most important and revered furniture makers
in English history with designs by Thomas Chippendale, John Linnell, John Mclean,
Robert Adam, Vile & Cobb, and William Kent. We offer some of the most beautifully
proportioned English furniture with the finest quality decorations, of inlaid woods,
carved mahogany or contrasting woods and grains.
