About the Item

A breathtaking Dutch-made, French Empire style buffet of flamed mahogany with coordinating dark marble top surface for a classic & Neoclassical look. The slab exhibits constellations of light marbleization over the black stone, like glittering stars in the night sky. A drawer in the frieze opens by lion head ring pulls to reveal a divided interior of three sections. Pilasters to the left and right incorporate busts of noble caryatids, cast in gilt bronze, transitioning into claw feet to lift the case off the floor. The two doors are wrapped in a bookmatched mahogany veneer, opening in tandem using the fixed key as a pull. Inside is a stationary shelf, 18 ⅜” deep for generous storage in a dining room or living room. Cleaned, tightened, and polished with a French paste wax – ready for your interior. Please view the detailed images to see the wonderful features and antique condition of this handsome Empire case piece.

French 19th Century Empire Buffet in Recent Paint
Located in Baton Rouge, LA
A very unique French Empire 19th century buffet, or desserte server, in demilune profile and more recent painted finish of uncertain age. The top surface is a handpainted faux marble that is nearly all black except for delicate wisps of smoky gray veining. In the frieze are three drawers: one in each corner that swings outward at an angle, and one wide drawer in the center, all using lion-motif ring pulls. The case is washed in an ethereal tone of French gray with matte texture and mottled variation blending streaks of white, gray, and blue pigment that may just as easily blend with Directoire and Gustavian tastes than the opulence of Empire. Carved wood caryatids in ebonized (painted) effect flank the pair of doors at center, which open in tandem by working lock and key. Inside the case are two shelves at different depths which could be perfect as a dry bar or dining room storage...
