Louis XV Style Walnut Root Cabinet 19th Century

About the Item

Splendid French writing cabinet from the Louis XV period from the 19th century. The cabinet has four supporting feet with the pompous and majestic shapes of classic French furniture. The low central body consists of 3 large chests of drawers, with two brass handles in patina, suitable for storing clothes or utilities for the area where you choose to place this piece of furniture. Above the drawer is a thicker frame, which protrudes elegantly. Higher up we see a space with a majestic fabric handle, which opens a writing desk. In fact, one pulls down the sinuous and very beautiful wooden top. Above this are five more compartmentalized drawers leaving a frame filled with curves and sinuosity, very whimsical. Above this are two mirrors that open like a window with original mirrors of the time in a rectangular shape with a hemispherical dome at the top. Opening these doors we see two elegant walnut shelves that create three compartments for storing all kinds of objects. A pompous frieze rises above, with two small side waves surmounted by the central frieze element, decorated with a mirror at its centre. The cabinet is marvellous and is suitable for classic and elegant styles.

    Very rare antique closet dating from the Rococo period of the 1700s, made of walnut wood with brass details, very elegant, fine Italian manufacture. The antique closet is totally made of the finest walnut wood. The base is supported by 4 square feet, placed diagonally, which create a very fine angle. Their workmanship is reminiscent of that of capitals, given the curly detail present on each of them.

Inside the display case we find a storage space also complete with two drawers below. A brass bar in patina is present. The centerpiece of the closet is its top: it is finely crafted through shapely and sinuous decorations. There are 4 ornamental capitals, one for each corner of the cabinet, also placed diagonally.

    Rare 18th-century wooden cabinet in the style of Louis XV, fine French manufacture. The cabinet is made entirely of fine dark wood, four legs for support.
