Circa 1790. ​ A superb example of an English country lowboy, this table appears to be showing its age in the angle of its legs--which seem to be thinking independently as to which direction they would like to go. Some would call this imperfection or defective, but we like to call it "charm." The richly grained elm, combined with the beautiful color and patina, elevate the desirability of this sweet little table. Small Mahogany Bow Front Side Table England.

Circa 1920. ​ Covered in a deeply figured walnut burl, this shaped front lowboy would do equally as well as a dressing table as it would occasional table or console.

Circa 1780. ​ One of the best game tables we've seen in some time, this particular table features inlaid bands of satinwood and tulipwood on the top and apron.

Circa 1900. ​ A pale grey painted top on a rustic fruitwood base of typical form give this tilt top table a genuine country look. The paint has some age, but is in good condition.

Please contact us at 203.263.3446 or info@millhouseantiquesandgardens.com with any requests or questions. Working Model of a Steam Launch United Kingdom. Circa 20th century. Scratch-built working steam launch. Boiler connects to a dual-piston drive that directly powers a single propeller. Pair of Brass Beehive Andirons England. Circa 1800. In a look that was prevalent at the time, these diminutive andirons were meant for a smaller fireplace such as one found in a bedroom or small study. Delicately proportioned and with thin accents, these are sure to brighten any fireplace they inhabit. Shaving Stand England. Circa 1870. The upper tier of this shaving stand originally would have had an open ring that supported a bowl. It has since been filled with a fine mahogany board, offering the opportunity to place a plant or sculpture in place of the bowl and making this a fine pedestal.. Fishing Smack Model England. Circa late 19th century. Fully fitted with proper sails (colored the tint that they would have been after their first proofing coat), chains and anchor, this fishing smack model proudly displays its workman roots. Employed through much of the 19th century along the coasts, these boats even found themselves outfitted for battle during the Great War, though we have no evidence that this particular one, the “Patience” out of Ramsgate, ever saw such action. Dutch Teestoofs Holland. Circa 1820. ​ These beautiful Dutch teestoofs were used to keep a kettle warm. Smoldering coals would be placed in the brass liner on top of which the kettle would rest. Though keeping a kettle warm these days is no longer a necessity, these mahogany teestoofs with their original brass lining and standing at 13" high are still handy as wastebaskets or jardinières. Whether you need one, a pair or perhaps even three, you can find them at Mill House. ​ Regency Candle Stands United Kingdom. Circa 1820. Fine pair of matching Regency candle stands with subtle lipped trays on top of unusually turned columns. Stands end with delicately carved cabriole legs with acanthus leaves on the knees and ending with ball and claw feet. Large Pond Yacht Model England. Circa 1900. This elegant yacht was created for pond racing, but looks just as well sunning itself in a large window. This type of model boat racing became popular during the turn of the last century and has continued to this day. This well-proportioned model has a larger number of sails than many of the later racing models, which, in the interest of stability, eschewed multiple angle sails. H.M.S. Pelican Ship Model England. Circa 1880. A beautiful example of ship modeling, this sloop has all the details the original would have had and the model maker left the lower half of the hull exposed to reveal the frame. Originally in private service, the sloop was christened the Pelican in 1757 with a 16 gun arrangement for His Majesty's Service. This model, created around 1880, is a faithful recreation of the vessel. Cart England. Circa 1890. A great addition to any yard, this cart is ready to be repurposed for floral display—or even accessorized for any holiday. Black is the new black, so this old cart will always be in fashion. Regency Library Steps United Kingdom. Circa 1820. Regency mahogany library steps with top stair compartment with lift top and second with a surprise slide out compartment. Bagatelle England. Circa 1850. "Bagatelle" is defined as "something of little value or importance; a trifle." It is no coincidence that a tabletop game could be called bagatelle, as it is a leisure activity designed to pass time and hone skills of little use in normal society. This 19th century box has its original baize and the painted numbers in the wells are still intact, thus rendering it as worthy of play as it is of conversation. Half Ship Model, SS. Ayelstone England. Circa 1917. Created by master model builder, J. Blumer, for the Aylestone Shipping Co, Ltd., this half model of the S.S. Ayelstone is housed in a custom case with mirrored back. The details are perfect—as they had to be—and the quality of his work is immediately evident on first look. Further inspection reveals that no detail was too small. Oak Wine Barrel France. Circa 1920. This 300+ litre, oak wine barrel has aged almost as well as the wine it once held. Its impressive size and patina makes for a delightful conversation piece and the Perrier-Jouet painted decoration only adds to the topic of fine wines. On a heavy stand, it would look well in a wine cellar, or as decoration under a pergola. Glass Top Coffee Table France. Circa 1950. A large, glass top coffee table made from a grille door, the center of which is dominated by a beribboned trumpet vase with an attractive spill of flowers. Elegant cabriole legs complete the delicate appearance of this table without detracting from the grille. Chinese Vase with Handles China. Circa 1870. With a poem on the reverse that exhorts us to go outside and enjoy the outdoors and delicate depictions of people doing just that on the front, this outstanding antique vase has beautifully muted colors and a gentle shape. Shaving or Wig Stand England. Circa 1860. Originally a shaving or wig stand, this pedestal has been re-purposed in recent years to serve duty as a planter. It would do an exemplary job of holding a small piece of bronze, or a any variety of cascading greenery. French Humidor France. Circa 1860. This outstanding showpiece has been meticulously crafted and then coated in a rich, thick, ebony lacquer. Numerous classic design elements include the broken pediment above a single door with an oval porcelain Medusa-themed armorial flanked by porcelain colonettes. The interior features myriad trays flanking a central bank of drawers with ornate brass pulls. The interior facing of the door has a birdseye maple panel framed in kingwood. Antique Child's Sleigh England. Circa 1880. What you see here is a beautiful example of a 19th century sleigh used as a winter substitute for a pram. Made of iron and steel with mahogany seat and footrest, this little treasure probably racked up miles of wintry travel ferrying wee ones to and fro. Today perhaps it would make a superb plant stand in a warmer environment--a unique juxtaposition of services.

Yew Wood Three Drawer Lowboy England Custom made for us by a small cabinet shop in England, this little lowboy in distinctive yew wood is proportioned squarely at 27” x 27” yet it reads more rectangular because the curved cabriole legs don’t take up the visual space of the drawers. In a hallway, the living room, or bedside, this little table is just the thing for a little bit of storage and lamp-holding duty. Mahogany Tilt Top Pie Crust Table England This classic tilt top tea table on a four leg base features a pie crust edge and acanthus leaf carving on the legs that terminate in well-executed claw and ball feet.

Mahogany Single Drawer Side Table England Constructed of solid mahogany, this little side table could find a home just about anywhere—bedside, next to a sofa or wing chair, as a catch-all for keys and gloves in a side hall—and has straightforward kind of lines that allow it to blend with just about any décor. Yew Wood Four Drawer Lowboy England Combining classic style with an unconventional wood (in this case, English Yew wood) makes for a visually interesting take on a common piece of furniture. Four drawers offer plenty of storage space while eschewing the visual weight that a chest of drawers would command. Supported by delicately curved cabriole legs, this table is able to bridge many eras and be at home just about anywhere.

Chairs are reupholstered and finished with brass stud work. Queen Anne style legs with carved toes featuring a seashell and carved seashells to the knees. The back legs have a shaped form. Pair of Louis XV Style Fauteuil Chai France. Circa 1890. ​ Upholstered in needlepoint, this delightful pair of fauteuil chairs in carved walnut reminds us of a time not so long ago when we took a moment to sit beside someone and have an actual conversation. Sentences were well thought out and did not consist of acronyms. These chairs may be short in stature, but make up for it with excess charm. English Three Seat Settee England. Circa 1840. ​ English walnut three seat settee with upholstered slip seat and arm pads. The crest rail and back splats are decorated with intricate foliate relief carving. Lion's head carving on knees lead to well-articulated, carved paw feet. French Leather Club Chairs France. Circa 1920. ​ These ridiculously comfortable club chairs are covered in some of the finest leather upholstery we have seen. The rake of the back invites you to relax and the down cushion allows for superb comfort for the full length of the movie, half the book, or prolonged conversation. Whatever it is, the last thing on the list will be discomfort. English Knole Sofa England. Circa 1910. ​ Originally designed in the 17th century as a throne on which the monarch would greet guests, this style of sofa has become more recently associated with the trappings of the socially elite in a certain British television show set in the Edwardian era. This particular sofa happens to have been made sometime in the early 20th century and, as such, it is in better shape than if it were created 300 years ago. Mahogany Corner Chair England. Circa 1800. ​ A mahogany corner chair with wavy ladder back, overupholstered seat and unique brass and wood armature for music or book reading. Also nicely sized for marrying the 18th and 21st centuries with an iPad. Pair of Chinese Nobility Chairs Circa late 1800's or very early 1900's. ​ This pair of Chinese chairs was most likely produced for a nobleman in the late 1800s or very early 1900s. The stag featured prominently in the back of each splat is meant to represent longevity, and while the original owner is probably no longer with us, these chairs still are. With a rich, warm patina and an upright stance, they would proudly serve in any stately home today. Mahogany Stool on Carved Legs England. Circa 1890. ​ About the size of a dining chair, this little stool tucks neatly under a sideboard or table until such time that it is needed. On four well-executed cabriole legs with deeply carved acanthus relief and claw and ball feet, it looks good from any angle. Paneled Pine Settle England. Circa 1850. ​ Wearing its age proudly, this coffer settle has weathered the years well and is still around because it has both beauty and function. The deep storage well beneath the seat is more than adequate and the overall look of the piece lends itself to various design elements—it could work with a vintage-inspired décor, or at a classically appointed cottage. Set of 10 Leather Upholstered Side Chairs Italy. Circa 1920's. ​ Cinghiale leather with nail head trim give these chairs great character, however, the carving of the frames is what is remarkable about these copies of 18th century chairs. The richly carved knees draw the eye down to the shaped, crossed stretchers before landing on the carved goat feet. The leather has great character and each chair is an individual work of art. Oak Back Panel Settle England. Circa 1790. ​ An oak settle with raised panel back, upholstered cushion; on cabriole legs ending in a unique hoof foot. The overall form, along with the quality of the back panel carving and the shape of the feet indicate that this is not your ordinary oak settle, and it was probably commissioned for a large country estate. Black Lacquer Inlaid Side Chair England. Circa 1870. ​ Black lacquered papiér maché side chair with mother-of-pearl inlay, well executed, painted flowers and caned seat. Four Painted Portuguese Arm Chairs Portugal. Circa 18th century. ​ This unique set of four painted arm chairs in original finish with parcel gilt accents features two subtly different coats of arms. While all four chairs display a ducal coat of arms with a crown over the green framed shield, one pair has a rampant lion and the other pair a tower. They could be two versions of the same house, or perhaps they represent the merging of two houses. Carved Louis XV Style Bench Franc. Circa 1890. ​ Carved mahogany is accentuated by polychrome and parcel gilt on this Louis XV style bench in new black leather upholstery. Excellent proportions make this a viable option for use as a window seat, but its height also allows for easy storage beneath a sideboard or table. Elbow Arm Chair is Ash Rush Seat England. Circa 19th century. ​ This sweet little chair of the thinnest ash wood spokes is actually quite comfortable--a welcome surprise, given its austere appearance and delicate lines. Fine turnings and gently bent wood define the character of this testament to joinery. French Renaissance Walnut Arm Chair France. Circa 16th century. ​ The square seat and back of this regal seat are contrasted by the blocked barley twist turnings that comprise the arms, legs and stretcher. Well-carved recumbent lions terminate the arms and the hairy paw feet complete the theme. This sturdy chair may not have graced the court of Henry II, but probably would have faired better in a joust. Pair of Oak George I Hall Chairs England. Circa 1700. ​ A fine, early pair of Georgian oak hall chairs with turned legs and stretchers, and canted splat backs. These chairs date to the very beginning of the reign of George I and, as such, bear more characteristics of Queen Anne (George I's predecessor) furniture, rather than the design cues we normally associate with the Georgian era, which was heavily influenced by the emergence of Thomas Chippendale as the preeminent cabinetmaker of the 18th century. 8 Leather Jacobean Revival Chairs England. Circa 1890. ​ A set of 8 (2 arm chairs and 6 side chairs) English Jacobean Revival chairs with leather sling seats on oak and sycamore frames with hand carved decoration. These chairs are true to the Jacobean aesthetic and each features carvings that employ typical Jacobean elements. The arm chairs measure 27" wide, 22" deep and 43" tall. The sides measure 19" wide, 17" deep and 40" high. Both have 18" high seats. Iron, Brass and Leather Curule Chair Circa early 20th century. ​ Originally meant for Roman magistrates, this version features tooled and gilded leather on an iron frame with brass mounts joining the back rail to the armrests. The entirety resting on trefoil feet.

Paintings Below is a sample of antiques available. Click on images for more details. Please contact us at 203.263.3446 or info@millhouseantiquesandgardens.com with any requests or questions. Italian School Painting of Madonna and Child 19th century. Europe. Italian School oil on canvas of Madonna and Child. English School Portrait of a Gentleman England. 18th century. ​ This Eighteenth century English School portrait of a gentleman attired in garb befitting an earl is a fine example of aristocratic portraiture, a subject that became increasingly popular during the 18th century as more and more earldoms were handed out like candy in the political currency of the day. Unfortunately, neither artist nor subject is known to us, a thought that would probably appall both of them. 19th Century Portrait of a Woman Italy. Circa 19th century. ​ An oil portrait on board of an Italian woman in traditional garb. Framed in oak with gold leaf. Pair of 19th Century Portraits England. Circa 19th century. ​ This stern couple peers out at us through unique porthole frames from the period. Painted on canvas, they have been re-stretched onto wood backing and retrofitted to these frames, looking none the worse for the wear--though perhaps it was the move that soured their countenances. Artist Proof for Champagne Ad Created as an ad proposal, this hand painted proof for Veuve Clicquot Ponsardin champagne is a delightful composition and speaks to the joy normally associated with the bubbly beverage. And the personification of the elf that causes such mischief is an inspired touch. 18th Century Portrait of a Gentleman Germany. Circa late 18th century. ​ An oil on canvas portrait of a gentleman holding a philosophy book; probably German. No discernible signature. Pair of Portraits England. Circa 1820. ​ Painted in the early 19th century, this couple most likely came from means, as portraits were not an inexpensive proposition back then. They are dressed conservatively, but beyond that it is difficult to surmise their station. Neither painting is signed, but an artist of some skill was able to capture this couple. Portrait of a Gentleman England. Circa early 19th century. ​ An unsigned, early 19th century oil on canvas portrait of a gentleman in a short jacket--possibly a sea captain; traditional gold frame. Portrait of a Noble Woman Circa 1830. ​ This unsigned portrait of a young noble woman is executed in the style of Renaissance Venetian painter Palma il Vecchio.

Please contact us at 203.263.3446 or info@millhouseantiquesandgardens.com with any requests or questions. Yew Architectural Breakfront England ​ Custom made by talented craftsmen, this classically style Georgian breakfront with its columnar accents has presence that is unmatched by many of today's bookcases and display cabinets. The rich, honey tone of yew wood affords this breakfront a hue that can blend well with just about any other wood, from oak to fruitwood--or even an antique faded mahogany--while the classic lines look as well with antiques as they do with modern interiors. Walnut Bureau Bookcase England ​ Similar to the Yew version, this double dome Queen Anne style bureau bookcase in walnut burl is outfitted with myriad compartments. This version, however, simplifies things a bit with a more angular design and fewer drawers--for instance, what appear to be three drawers flanking the central cupboard in the upper section are actually single doors. Walnut Corner Cabinet England ​ This walnut, glazed door corner cupboard is just the right size to take up residence in just about any corner you can come up with. Measuring 30 1/2" along the back from the corner to the side, this can tuck in between a window and a corner with relative ease. Classically styled with arcaded cavetto moulding,13 pane glass and covered in a rich walnut grain. Yew Double Dome Bureau Bookcase England ​ Double dome, Queen Anne style bureau bookcase on bun feet in English Yew wood with Yew burl accents. Upper case is outfitted with myriad pigeon holes and drawers as well as cupboards with inlaid doors. Slant front desk has cascading, shaped front drawers flanking pigeon holes, column slides and a single cupboard with inlaid door. A tooled leather writing surface completes the exacting look of this handsome piece. Mahogany Glazed Door Breakfront England ​ We designed this breakfront to look the part of an 18th century piece, but offer 21st century functionality. From the glass shelves that allow for the option of interior lighting to the false drawer front cabinets flanking the central cupboard, this breakfront has optimal storage and display balanced beautifully. Hand crafted for us in classic fashion by our English cabinetmaker, it offers clean lines and superb finish and utility. Large Georgian Style Breakfront England ​ This breakfront features classic Chippendale design flourishes. From the broken pediment crown to the arcaded cavetto moulding, and carrying over to the carved window mullions of the domed side doors, the bold influence of Thomas Chippendale's vision is evident. While offering copious display space, this breakfront also manages to include an attractive amount of usable storage space--all packaged in an attractive design worthy of conversation. Architectural Open Shelf Bookcase England ​ This is a custom made, English walnut open shelf bookcase with fluted column sides and sawtooth adjustable shelves. Its standard size is: 85"H, 53"W, 16"D (11" deep shelves), but it can be ordered in just about any size and configuration; it is also available in English yew wood or mahogany. Glazed Door Bow Front Cabinet England ​ Just the right amount of arc makes this custom, English-made mahogany* cabinet pleasing to the eye while optimizing storage and display in a piece that is only 22" deep at its center. The gentle arc carves away some of the depth that might cause a traditionally square piece to visibly encroach on valuable room space, yet it still offers significant function in an attractive package. Satinwood Vitrine Bookcase with Desk England ​ What you see here is one of the finest examples of cabinetry work we have ever carried, created for us by an English cabinetmaker with whom we have been associated for over 30 years. Mostly satinwood, it has tulipwood crossbanding on the drawer fronts and vertical bands flanking the drawers. The center drawer houses a desk section outfitted with a contingent of small drawers and pigeon holes, with a tooled leather writing surface. Walnut Breakfront England ​ We designed this breakfront to bridge the style gap from antique to modern. Using clean lines and traditional glazing, we gave a nod toward the 18th century and covered it in a tight walnut burl with a narrow herringbone band. We specified glass shelves because they take up less visual weight behind the doors and allow for the option of adding lights to the interior. Whether your taste runs toward modern or classic, this breakfront offers myriad display possibilities.
