The large cabinet was supplied to George III in 1760-1761 to house his large and famous collection of medals. It was almost certainly made by the partnership of William Vile and John Cobb. They were best known for very fine carved decoration as ornament. When George IV gave his father's collection to the British Museum in 1825, the medals were transferred to more workaday cabinets.  It was probably then that two smaller cabinets were made from the ends of the large one. The pair to this one is in the Metropolitan Museum, New York.  No one knows what the middle section of the cabinet looked like or whether it survives.\r\n\r\nOn loan to the British Museum.","physicalDescription":"Three-tiered medal cabinet with pedimented topmost section, of mahogany, with carved, applied decoration, including the star of the Order of the Garter.  All three sections are fitted with shallow drawers or trays, with circular cut-out spaces for medals or coins, lined with green baize.

In 1761 the firm was appointed as royal cabinet-makers and the bills of the royal household record work by them to provide doors and drawers between the legs of the open stand of the 'Grand Medal Case'.  In the early 19th century, presumably when George IV transferred his father's medal collection to the British Museum, new, more utilitarian cases were made for it.  It was probably at this time that the Grand Medal Case was dismantled and at least two smaller cabinets made from it, of which this is one and the other is in the Metropolitan Museum, New York.","productionType":{"text":"Unique","id":"THES48864"},"contentDescription":"","contentPlaces":[],"associatedPlaces":[],"contentPerson":[],"associatedPerson":[],"contentOrganisations":[],"associatedOrganisations":[],"contentPeople":[],"associatedPeople":[],"contentEvents":[],"associatedEvents":[],"contentOthers":[],"contentConcepts":[],"contentLiteraryRefs":[],"galleryLabels":[],"partNumbers":["W.11:1-1963","W.11:2-1963","W.11:3-1963","W.11:4-1963","W.11:5-1963","W.11:6-1963","W.11:7-1963","W.11:8-1963","W.11:9-1963","W.11:10-1963","W.11:11-1963","W.11:12-1963","W.11:13-1963","W.11:14-1963","W.11:15-1963","W.11:16-1963","W.11:17-1963","W.11:18-1963","W.11:19-1963","W.11:20-1963","W.11:21-1963","W.11:22-1963","W.11:23-1963","W.11:24-1963","W.11:25-1963","W.11:26-1963","W.11:27-1963","W.11:28-1963","W.11:29-1963","W.11:30-1963","W.11:31-1963","W.11:32-1963","W.11:33-1963","W.11:34-1963","W.11:35-1963","W.11:36-1963","W.11:37-1963","W.11:38-1963","W.11:39-1963","W.11:40-1963","W.11:41-1963","W.11:42-1963","W.11:43-1963","W.11:44-1963","W.11:45-1963","W.11:46-1963","W.11:47-1963","W.11:48-1963","W.11:49-1963","W.11:50-1963","W.11:51-1963","W.11:52-1963","W.11:53-1963","W.11:54-1963","W.11:55-1963","W.11:56-1963","W.11:57-1963","W.11:58-1963","W.11:59-1963","W.11:60-1963","W.11:61-1963","W.11:62-1963","W.11:63-1963","W.11:64-1963","W.11:65-1963","W.11:66-1963","W.11:67-1963","W.11:68-1963","W.11:69-1963","W.11:70-1963","W.11:71-1963","W.11:72-1963","W.11:73-1963","W.11:74-1963","W.11:75-1963","W.11:76-1963","W.11:77-1963","W.11:78-1963","W.11:79-1963","W.11:80-1963","W.11:81-1963","W.11:82-1963","W.11:83-1963","W.11:84-1963","W.11:85-1963","W.11:86-1963","W.11:87-1963","W.11:88-1963","W.11:89-1963","W.11:90-1963","W.11:91-1963","W.11:92-1963","W.11:93-1963","W.11:94-1963","W.11:95-1963","W.11:96-1963","W.11:97-1963","W.11:98-1963","W.11:99-1963","W.11:100-1963","W.11:101-1963","W.11:102-1963","W.11:103-1963","W.11:104-1963","W.11:105-1963","W.11:106-1963","W.11:107-1963","W.11:108-1963","W.11:109-1963","W.11:110-1963","W.11:111-1963","W.11:112-1963","W.11:113-1963","W.11:114-1963","W.11:115-1963","W.11:116-1963","W.11:117-1963","W.11:118-1963","W.11:119-1963","W.11:120-1963","W.11:121-1963","W.11:122-1963","W.11:123-1963","W.11:124-1963","W.11:125-1963","W.11:126-1963","W.11:127-1963","W.11:128-1963","W.11:129-1963","W.11:130-1963","W.11:131-1963","W.11:132-1963","W.11:133-1963","W.11:134-1963","W.11:135-1963"],"accessionNumberNum":"11","accessionNumberPrefix":"W","accessionYear":1963,"otherNumbers":[],"copyNumber":"","aspects":["WHOLE","Medal cabinet","middle stage","lower stage","drawer [1]","drawer [2]","drawer [3]","drawer [4]","drawer [5]","drawer [6]","drawer [7]","drawer [8]","drawer [9]","drawer [10]","drawer [11]","drawer [12]","drawer [13]","drawer [14]","drawer [15]","drawer [16]","drawer [17]","drawer [18]","drawer [19]","drawer [20]","drawer [21]","drawer [22]","drawer [23]","drawer [24]","drawer [25]","Drawer [1]","Drawer [2]","Drawer [3]","Drawer [4]","Drawer [5]","Drawer [6]","Drawer [7]","Drawer [8]","Drawer [9]","Drawer [10]","Drawer [11]","Drawer [12]","Drawer [13]","Drawer [14]","Drawer [15]","Drawer [16]","Drawer [17]","Drawer [18]","Drawer [19]","Drawer [20]","Drawer [21]","Drawer [22]","Drawer [23]","Drawer [24]","Drawer [25]","Drawer [26]","Drawer [27]","Drawer [28]","Drawer [29]","Drawer [30]","Drawer [31]","Drawer [32]","Drawer [33]","Drawer [34]","Drawer [35]","Drawer [36]","Drawer [37]","Drawer [38]","Drawer [39]","Drawer [40]","Drawer [41]","Drawer [42]","Drawer [43]","Drawer [44]","Drawer [45]","Drawer [46]","Drawer [47]","Drawer [48]","Drawer [49]","Drawer [50]","Drawer [51]","Drawer [52]","Drawer [53]","Drawer [54]","Drawer [55]","Drawer [56]","Drawer [57]","Drawer [58]","Drawer [59]","Drawer [60]","Drawer [61]","Drawer [62]","Drawer [63]","Drawer [64]","Drawer [65]","Drawer [66]","Drawer [67]","Drawer [68]","drawer [26]","Drawer [69]","Drawer [70]","Drawer [71]","Drawer [72]","Drawer [73]","Drawer [74]","Drawer [75]","Drawer [76]","Drawer [77]","Drawer [78]","Drawer [79]","Drawer [80]","Drawer [81]","Drawer [82]","Drawer [83]","Drawer [84]","Drawer [85]","Drawer [86]","Drawer [87]","Drawer [88]","Drawer [89]","Drawer [90]","Drawer [91]","Drawer [92]","Drawer [93]","Drawer [94]","Drawer [95]","Drawer [96]","Drawer [97]","Drawer [98]","Drawer [99]","Drawer [100]","Drawer [101]","Drawer [102]","Drawer [103]","Drawer [104]","Drawer [105]","key"],"assets":["2019LN5184","2019LT2970","2019LW8772"],"recordModificationDate":"2026-04-09","recordCreationDate":"2002-11-25","availableToBook":false}}
