About
Bring neoclassical elegance and rustic charm to your dining space with this stately painted buffet. Crafted in Northern France circa 1880, the piece features a rectilinear silhouette with a projecting top and canted front corners. It is constructed from solid oak and finished in a textured, off-white paint with subtle distressing. The facade is symmetrically arranged with two paneled doors flanking a central column of four drawers. Each door panel is inset with raised rectangular molding adorned at the corners with carved rosettes, a classic motif of the Louis XVI period. The corners of the cabinet are trimmed with fluted pilaster-style moldings that echo the refined architectural language of the era. Raised on short tapered feet, the enfilade is both sturdy and elegant. The painted finish continues along the beveled edges and cornice, enhancing its visual depth. The top surface, also painted and lightly textured, offers a generous expanse for display or serving. The back of the piece reveals its original wooden planks and construction methods, providing insight into its authentic 19th-century craftsmanship. In excellent condition commensurate with age and use, this antique sideboard offers ample storage and timeless style, ideal for a traditional dining room, French country kitchen, or entry hall. Measures: 64.25″W x 23″D x 35.5″H
