About the Item

An exquisite Louis XVI style dessert buffet, handcrafted in warm mahogany with brass trim by skilled artisans in Lyon, circa 1880s. Though petite in scale, this piece is rich in detail, embodying the timeless elegance and refined craftsmanship of French design. Topped with its original molded Carrara marble, the buffet features a full-length drawer adorned with brass trim and a laurel leaf escutcheon, elegantly accented with delicate ribbon and bow motifs, a luxurious touch that enhances both its beauty and function. Below, two paneled doors open to reveal a spacious interior, perfect for storing serving pieces, barware, or fine china. Raised on tapered toupie feet with brass collars and sabots, the buffet is further distinguished by its original brass trim and hardware, emphasizing its neoclassical influence. Whether placed in a dining room, entryway, or living space as a stylish bar, this versatile piece can even be repurposed as a chic vanity for a powder room or bath. Its petite proportions make it ideal for smaller spaces, offering practical storage with classic French sophistication. Dimensions: h - 36" w - 51" d - 20.75"
