cellaret การใช้
- Cellarets were usually placed under the sideboard and were, as a rule, handsome and well-proportioned.
- In the latter part of the 18th century, when the sideboard was in process of evolution from a side-table with drawers into the large and important piece of furniture that it eventually became, the cellaret was a detached receptacle.
- A "'cellarette "'or "'cellaret "'is a small furniture cabinet, available in various sizes, shapes, and designs which is used to store bottles of alcoholic beverages such as wine and whiskey.
- But Simon Powell, of Freshfords in Bath, England, sold several items that topped $ 10, 000 each, including a mahogany cellaret, or liquor cabinet, circa 1810, for $ 12, 000, which justified the excursion, he said.
- As the refined, early Neoclassicism of the late-18th and early-19th centuries gave way to its more ostentatious interpretations known as the Empire style, cellarets became heavier and more ornate, boldly over-emphasizing Roman and Grecian motifs, and sometimes even assuming the shape of sarcophagi mounted with lions'heads and animal-paw feet.
