A monumental Aesthetic Movement cabinet by Collinson & Lock, designed by Thomas Edward Collcutt, c.1871. Built in ebonised wood with the dramatic tiered architecture that defined Collcutt’s exhibition pieces, it carries hand-painted panels of birds and flowers attributed to Charles Fairfax Murray. This form belongs to the small group of cabinets shown at major international exhibitions in the 1870s, including London 1871, Vienna 1873 and Philadelphia 1876, establishing Collcutt’s reputation for theatrical, architectural furniture. It’s a rare survival from the high point of Victorian Japonisme and Aesthetic interiors, where structure, painted ornament and deep black finishes were used to turn furniture into stage-sets for living.

Bruce J. Talbert Sideboard, also known as the Pericles Dressoir, manufactured by Holland & Sons, 1866, at The Met Fifth Avenue
An ambitious example of British craftsmanship, this so-called Pericles dressoir or sideboard was specifically designed by Talbert as the centerpiece for the stand of Holland & Sons at the Paris International Exhibition of 1867. Talbert, known for his work in the reformed Gothic style, included a scene from Shakespeare’s Pericles, Prince of Tyre in the central gable as well as several quotations from this and two other Shakespeare plays, allusions to dining and the grace before a meal. Both the references to Shakespeare as well as the use of oak, a British native wood, are manifestations of immense national pride.
