About the Item

This mid-19th century French Napoleon III vassalier buffet, crafted from striking curly walnut, exemplifies the sophisticated design and meticulous craftsmanship of the period. The top of the buffet is crowned with an ornately carved pediment and flanked by elegantly turned columns, presenting a regal and stately appearance. Upon closer inspection, the buffet shows signs of its age and history, including small pieces of molding that are missing from the skirt adjacent to the columns and along the outer edges of the pediment. Furthermore, there is a small repair on the right front corner of the skirt where the molding was reattached, bearing witness to the piece’s resilience and the care taken to preserve its integrity over the years. This piece is more than just a functional item of furniture; it is a slice of history, offering both utility and a deep aesthetic appeal. It is ideal for anyone looking to enhance their space with an authentic antique that tells a story, adding character and charm to any room it graces. Whether used in a dining area or as a focal point in an entryway, this buffet remains a testament to the enduring beauty and craftsmanship of French furniture. 83h x 57w x 24d counter height 45
