VICTORIAN MAHOGANY DEACONS / HALL BENCH & MIRROR |
Here we have this Antique Victorian solid Mahogany deacon's or hall bench and matching mirror. This great matching deacon's bench and mirror will date to about 1900. The hanging mirror frame measures 45 1/2" wide by 31" high. The solid Mahogany frame features a broken pediment with a carved acanthus leaf and floral crest. The four original double hooks are in good condition, the bottom part of the lower left hand hook is missing. The original mirror shows some spotting and streaking consistent with its age but still bright and clear. The deacon's or hall bench is a separate piece and features the same broken pediment on the back as well as the carved acanthus leaf and floral crest. This bench also features tall crisply carved back posts which are capped off by carved floral heads and the lower section which meets the arms features carved palm fronds twisting around the posts. The heavy arms taper slightly out to the front of the bench where the front posts are decorated with the same carved floral heads. This bench has a lift open seat which is used for storage, the inside cupboard is very clean inside. The front feet are carved ball and claw. We have had the right hand side top of the center pediment professionally repaired. The deacon's bench measures 46 1/2" wide by 19 1/2" deep and 38 1/2" high. SHIPPING will be $225.00 anywhere in the 48 States or most areas in Canada, carefully packaged.
