French Provincial Walnut Armoire

About the Item

This monumental Louis XV armoire exhibits the rare beauty of French Provincial furniture. Crafted of lustrous walnut, this armoire features double doors, one of which opens with the original key, while the other opens with an interior latch. Exceptional carving distinguishes this piece, as well. Crowned by a highly detailed basket of flowers, this armoire also sports rare five-point stars. Fluidly-shaped panels, original hinges and pierced key plates, and bun feet complete this magnificent design. Exceptional Louis XV period armoires such as this are the epitome of French Provincial furniture and are increasingly difficult to find in such wonderful condition. In addition, those that retain their original hardware are incredibly scarce, for it was often removed and melted down for ammunition during the unrest of the late 18th and early 19th centuries,  circa 1750 Measures: 73 1/2” wide x 30” deep x 118 7/8” high.
