Robert Belcher Antiques was established in 1984 and is a high-quality retailer of interesting, rare antiques and decorative objects. After forty years of shop keeping and maintaining beautiful showrooms, which have been regularly open six days a week, Robert and Wendy have now taken a slightly different approach to their business. Having sold their retail premises, the antique business is now fully online. The picture framing service has ceased to operate because of moving online.
You can contact Robert and Wendy by email or telephone to discuss items from their extensive catalogue of attractive pieces and make purchases. Customers can rest assured that the long-established dealership is continuing to run in an exceedingly professional way, selling genuine and high-quality items which are guaranteed to please the most discerning collector, decorator or homeowner.
All items will be personally hand packaged to a high standard. Small items are extensively wrapped using the best materials and are often double boxed. Items are then shipped with DHL or Royal Mail fully insured and often with next day delivery. Larger items would be personally delivered or sent with a specialist antique delivery firm, or for outside the U.K, a professional shipping company.
Please enjoy viewing their collection of rare and interesting pieces and have the assurance that Robert and Wendy will do their utmost to make sure your experience is exceptional, as has been recognised by many customers who have bought with confidence regularly over the years.

Description
This delightful tall tripod wash or wig stand is completely original and it has an additional later removable insert which forms a table top for displaying an important object like a bronze figure, porcelain vase or a table lamp.
The top has been cleverly made in matching dense timber and it fits neatly in the rebated ring and fixes on the underside with rotating mahogany blocks which makes the top easy to fix or remove with no damage or alteration to the original stand.
This George II stand dates to circa 1750 and it is a fine example standing on tripod legs with pad feet which together form the lower shelf which has a turned rebate with a central hole which is designed to take a jug for water.
The shaped C scroll supports rise up to the central section which is fitted with two small drawers for a gentleman’s grooming items such as scissors, razer and hair grips.
Above there is an open turned urn for pins or studs.
The three supports continue to rise up to the turned mahogany dished ring designed to support and air a gentleman’s wig during the night and hold a small wash bowl for shaving.
The stand has a lovely original well polished patina and rich colour.
