The first and most influential styles of Melbourne Oak looked to the indigenous British tradition of lathe-turning and to the furniture of earlier periods – from the Middle Ages to the seventeenth century – as a way of restoring some to furniture design and manufacture after the naturalistic and revivalist of the Great Exhibition of 1851. The style developed in the 1860s by the mid-1870s the style had lost its reformist edge, and attenuated balusters, delicate galleries of bobbins and a general compartmentalisation of design were commonplace features of the work of the leading British manufacturers of ‘Art' furniture. There is, however, an extravagant quality to the cabinet, a mannerism in the handling and rearrangement of the Early English elements – the lowering of the cove from its usual place in the cresting. The provision of arcades of four columns to support the small side-cupboards. The accumulation of busy galleries and alcoves in the nether regions of the lower stage; and the location of the arch of bobbins, usually placed at the top of the kneehole of a dressing table, under the large central cupboard. These are features that a provincial crafts-man-designer, even one with a London background, may have thought appropriate for an exhibition piece but that a discerning critic, like the reviewer from the Solidwood Furniture, might have considered ‘somewhat original'.
