EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases a stunning wine cooler dating back to 1821. Crafted with exquisite detail, this piece is made of mahogany and features lead lining and brass hardware, adding to its regal appearance. Measuring at an impressive 106.7x64.8x76.2 cm, it commands attention in any room. Created by the renowned Mack, Williams and Gibton during their active years from 1811-1829, this wine cooler is now housed in The Art Institute of Chicago as part of their European Decorative Arts collection. Its acquisition was made possible through various generous donations including the Richard T. Crane Jr. Memorial fund and the Neville and John H. Bryan Endowment funds. The intricate carving on this wine cooler deserves special mention - lions' paws grace each corner while a majestic lion's head adorns the front panel, giving it an air of grandeur fit for royalty. Additionally, a beautifully carved harp motif adds a touch of elegance to this Georgian masterpiece. This Irish-made treasure has stood the test of time and remains an exceptional example of craftsmanship from the Regency era. With its wooden case resembling a casket or crate, one cannot help but be captivated by its beauty and historical significance.
