About the Item

This exquisite pair of French communication doors from the late 18th century, circa 1790, showcase the refined craftsmanship typical of the period. The doors are made from rich, dark wood, featuring intricate paneling and gracefully arched tops, adding a sense of elegance and grandeur. Their beautiful patina highlights their age and history, making them a timeless addition to any home or collection. The doors are accented with finely detailed, original wrought iron hardware, including decorative hinges and a central latch, which are artfully designed with curved and floral motifs. The ornate escutcheon on each door hints at the sophistication of the period, with its delicately carved detail that surrounds the central locking mechanism. These doors would have been used to connect adjacent rooms in an 18th-century French estate, allowing for both privacy and ease of movement between spaces. They can now serve as statement pieces in a modern or traditional interior, perfect for use as interior doors, pantry doors, or as striking wall decor. The craftsmanship, condition, and originality of the hardware make this pair of doors a rare find, ideal for those looking to incorporate a piece of French history into their space.
