Elegant in their tall, narrow proportions, this handsome pair of antique confiturier cabinets combines restrained Louis XVI design with a beautifully time-worn painted finish. Crafted in northern France circa 1880, each cabinet stands on four tapered and fluted legs beneath a carved apron enriched with a repeating vertical motif. The façade features a shallow upper drawer framed with molded panels and centered by a circular carved medallion fitted with a decorative metal pull. Below, a single cabinet door is embellished with a recessed geometric panel accented at the corners with hand-carved floral rosettes. Fluted corner pilasters and molded side panels reinforce the neoclassical character of the design, while the original-style iron escutcheons and keys add further period detail. Both cabinets retain a wonderfully textured, distressed painted finish in soft blue-gray and pale gray tones, with natural wear and traces of the underlying wood showing through along the edges and moldings. The backs remain unpainted, revealing the traditional wood construction and warm aged patina. Originally designed as confituriers, or French jelly cabinets...
