Chippendale Style Sideboard Appraisal

Hepplewhite Style Mahogany Buffet Sideboard

This is an elegant Hepplewhite style serpentine-front sideboard, likely dating from the mid-20th century, crafted with mahogany and decorative wood veneers. The piece features a striking bowed front with a continuous band of light-colored satinwood or maple crossbanding along the top edge and drawer fronts. The central top surface highlights a decorative oval marquetry inlay. It contains a large central convex drawer flanked by two smaller concave drawers and two side cupboards with oval-patterned door panels. The sideboard is supported by six square tapered legs, four in the front and two in the back, featuring delicate line stringing and ending in spade feet. The hardware consists of traditional circular brass ring pulls. Measuring approximately 6 feet in length, the craftsmanship shows high-quality veneer work and classic Federal-era proportions. The condition appears to be very good vintage, with a high-gloss polished finish showing minimal surface wear, light scratches consistent with age, and no visible structural damage. The intricate banding and figured wood grain patterns indicate a premium reproduction of 18th-century English cabinetry.
