About the Item

19th century French Louis XVI walnut marble top buffet is a definitively French expression of the neoclassic revival of the styles birthed during the ancient Greek and Roman times that continues to remain popular thousands of years later! This example was rendered in sumptuous French walnut, considered the premier indigenous European furniture wood, and the design highlights the natural warmth, coloration and beauty of the wood with aplomb! Topped with elegantly veined marble for carefree entertaining and enjoyment, if features a pair of drawers bordered with beaded trim and centered with elaborately cast bronze bale pulls depicting laurel garlands. The key guards on the cabinet doors below match, and enhance the exquisite carved detail in full relief on each door expressing floral garlands in amazingly realistic detail. Even the center stile between the doors features relief carvings of a trumpet-shaped urn bursting with flowers and flanked by flowing ribbon. The sides and base are a study in tailored contrast, relying only on the beauty of the wood for visual appeal. If you act fast, the smaller matching buffet is still available as of this writing! Circa 1890s Measures 40.5 H x 60 W x 21 D.

19th Century Louis XVI Marble Top Walnut Display Buffet by Kint of Gand
Located in Dallas, TX
19th Century Louis XVI marble top walnut display buffet by Kint of Gand is a stunning piece that will immediately command admiration from all who enter the room in which it is displayed! Hand-crafted by Edouard Kint, a fine furniture maker in the historic city of Ghent (called Gand in French), a city that originally started as a settlement at the confluence of the Rivers Scheldt and Leie and in the Late Middle Ages became one of the largest and richest cities of northern Europe, with some 50,000 people in 1300. It prospered primarily because of the rich, fertile soils surrounding the area. Evidence of habitation during the Stone Age has been found, and by the late 19th century it was a thriving European center with historical significance, producing such masterworks as this splendid buffet. Although it is almost six feet in width and over two feet in depth, its rounded sides soften the impact of its footprint on your floor plan, while simultaneously providing copious display, storage, and serving space in abundance! Crafted from hand-select walnut, it has been lavishly carved with intertwined foliates across the main facade in a step-front configuration, with rounded cornerposts carved with rosettes, egg form and laurel garlands atop reeded and fluted motifs providing a framework for the lush, artistic neoclassical carvings on the parquet-paneled doors. Urns in full relief are depicted amongst flowing ribbon, floral garlands and intertwined vines. Bronze key guards add a nice accent. On each side, recessed behind the aforementioned rounded cornerposts, are the display cabinets in a full quarter-round form, with fluting across the drawer that, with the bronze bale pull, pivots out on a single rear hinge. The rounded cabinet door below is fitted with a single curved pane of beveled glass, with quarter round shelving...
