About the Item

Buffet hand-crafted in the early 1800s using cherry and decorated with walnut veneer. The buffet has beautiful lines and color, the grain of the walnut once bleached shows beautiful and subtle grey striations that add depth to the piece. Depths is also provided by the curved drawer fronts found on top of two doors that open to a single interior storage space. The door fronts are adorned with hand-carved flat molding framing flat chamfered panels. The top is also made of chamfered panels framed on three sides. Throughout the piece we can see the wooden pegs used to hold the case together at the joints. The buffer still sits on its original block feet, but the hardware has been replaced. Overall this is a very interesting piece that brings together Italian and French styles, creating something different and unique.

18th Century Bleached Walnut Italian Credenza, Buffet, Sideboard
Located in Carmine, TX
Walnut credenza handcrafted in Italy in the mid 1700s and bleached recently. Don't let its delicate overall appearance fool you because, as my lower back can attest, this baby is heavy. This is a beautiful credenza that follow the typical italian style with slanted sides, which create small triangular storage spaces on either sides of the two main front doors and drawer. Overall the credenza is very straight in lines. The drawers have flat overlay fronts, and the doors show chamfered panels with a raised carving and are framed by flat molding. The carving and molding help giving the piece some depth and decoration. The bleaching process also provided the credenza with additional warmth, depth and decoration, by bringing out the beautiful grain and underlying colors of the wood. The top of the credenza is composed of boards with ogee edge nailed to the main case. On the inside the credenza is very spacious, providing plenty of storage space. Overall this is a beautiful piece that has lived a long life, and has received some help in "hanging in there" over the years. This is a piece that will fit well with both modern and...
