Antiques: A hot Georgian wine cooler and a cool Edwardian desk in Cork

Des O'Sullivan looks at stylish pieces and spectacular value at Woodwards

An Edwardian rolltop desk at Woodwards.

A hot Georgian wine cooler or a cool Edwardian desk? The choice is yours at Woodwards summer auction in Cork next Saturday (June 28). 

Well-positioned each of these stylish antique pieces can add grace to most homes. Estimated respectively at €600-€800 and €400-€600, they are not particularly expensive and would have cost more 20 years ago.
