The exceptional piece is a must for wine enthusiasts and collectors. The wine cellarette was considered an essential piece of dining room furniture and was used primarily between the mid-18th to mid-19th centuries. These fixtures were often displayed beneath a sideboard or side table where dining guests could easily view the evening’s selections. Both stylish and functional, cellarettes allowed the host to serve a wide variety of wine and spirits directly from the comfort of the dining room. They also served as a cooler, keeping particular vintages chilled if necessary. Circa 1825 27 1/2" wide x 19 1/2" deep x 19 1/2" high Show more
