A pair of Regency style painted and parcel-gilt breakfront cabinets

with cream simulated marble top above three frieze drawers, with a central pair of grille and pleated silk-lined cupboard door, the returns fitted with conforming cupboard doors, on toupie feet, re-decorated with later handles

Please note the saleroom notice regarding the change to dating. A decorative pair of cabinets in overall reasonable condition. The surface with typical small marks and chips to parcel-gilding and painted decoration consistent with age and use. Each cabinet with a side door that doesn't close properly. The handles to drawers have left marks were they have been twisted. One cabinet with two loses to moulding. One top with two noticeable age splits and generally both tops with minor movement to surface which has created small surface splits to paint. Would benefit from cosmetic attention but otherwise ready to use.
