Arts & Crafts / Art Nouveau Cabinet.

The blog is back at work after a wonderful weeks holiday in the Lake District. Whilst there we visited Blackwell a superb Arts and Crafts era house designed by M.H Baille Scott. Beautifully restored and open to the public, it has been sympathetically furnished with pieces from the period. It is well worth a visit if you are in the area. With thoughts of Blackwell fresh in my mind I was delighted to discover this striking mahogany display cabinet upon my arrival back at work. With elements of the Art Nouveau style as well as the Arts and Crafts it is an unusual piece from that remarkable period of furniture design. In excellent condition restored and repolished in our workshop
