Small
Livery Cupboard or Ambry |
![]() |
This
small Livery cupboard or Ambry is two and a half inches high and three
inches wide. The top overhangs the body of the cupboard. It has butterfly
hinges and a non working lock plate. The original, owned by the V&A,
has no feet as they did not survive the passage of years intact. I have
added what I think suitable. The carving imitates window designs. The
piercing would have been backed by fabric to keep insects out. |
