An Edwardian cylinder bureau at Woodwards.

There was a time when an Edwardian cylinder bureau like the one at Woodwards sale in Cork today, March 4, might have created something of a bidding war. That was then and this is now. With an estimate of just €400-€600, this fine statement piece should be a bargain for somebody. And it is useful too.

Other functional antique pieces include a d-end triple pillar dining table, a William IV tea table, an Edwardian walnut sewing table, a Georgian mahogany bureau and a bowfront chest of drawers all estimated at €400-€600.
