Allen & Brother Music Cabinet Important Renaissance Revival walnut Victorian music cabinet
attributed to Allen & Brother, Philadelphia. That firm was known for rich burl with ebonized highlights, Egyptian design motifs, and rare
sarrancolin marble. The latter was likely imported from France and is
seldom found on pieces other than those made by Allen & Brother. A table
with similar design elements can be seen on page 722 of the May 1996 issue
of "The Magazine Antiques." This cabinet features claw feet, bell flowers,
incised carvings in a burled panel, and a wonderful bronze bust of a young
girl set into the front of the cabinet. There is a very slight split in the
burled ring around the bronze. There is a key to help open the door. It
has burled panels in the sides. A gem!
Circa: 1860

unusual feature on the interior with an inset glass inkwell and curved pen holder. The top gallery has
a fancy acorn finial with elaborate carvings, decorative rosettes, and shaped raised burled panels.
Underneath is a deeply recessed panel with half round carvings, rosettes and pretty openwork on
the sides. The deeply recessed panels on this piece are especially well done (see photos of the lid
and doors). There are corresponding raised burl panels and rosettes on the lid and base along with
leaf and flower carvings on the side stiles. The two key holes have especially fine and delicate carvings
around them and there is the original, old large key. The interior has the original green cloth surface
(with many ink stains from the ages) and the original trim border, which we left intact. The interior
drawer fronts and slot trim is nicely burled with the original fancy knobs on the drawers. This
pretty secretary has several fine and unusual features!

Huge Custom Made Walnut Cabinet Magnificent Renaissance Revival walnut Victorian custom made
cabinet. It has a burled gallery on the very top. The top has a drawer on
the right side and a fake drawer front on the left that pivots (see photo).
When the two large middle doors are opened a gorgeous and intriguing
interior is revealed. In the middle is a pullout drawer with incised
carved front that opens to display a desk. The desk has the original red
felt surface (some stains) and five small drawers with birdseye front.
There are also two totally hidden secret drawers that are spring loaded and
open into the back of the cubby in the middle of the interior. These
drawers are released by pushing on the thin birdseye maple strips that are
on the outer edges of the interior - an ingenious and, in our experience,
unique feature! There are four felt covered shelves above and five below
the desk section that pull out providing a wonderful display - work surface.
A burled panel on each side of each shelf is attached to the shelf and comes
out with it. When all the shelves are recessed this give the appearance of
a solid burled strip coming down on each side. There is a large drawer with
carved center in the middle of the base. Each side has a curved door and
bottom drawer with inset burled panels. There are two shelves in each side
cabinet. Notice the book matched burl walnut veneer on each side of the
cabinet where the veneer on each side is a mirror image of that on the
corresponding side. This huge piece was very likely made by Herter
Brothers, NYC. It has unsurpassed quality and construction. It was
certainly custom made for an architect, industrial designer, artist or
draftsman. Furthermore, the condition of the felt and wood suggests that
is was seldom used over the years. A most unique and exceptional piece!

colors are especially exciting since they are seldom found. A similar stand
from the Lightner Museum in Florida is shown on page 91 of "Styles of
