About the Item
Beautiful antique Breton sideboard in oak, opening with a long frieze drawer and two carved doors. Likely from Quimper, this piece reflects the rich tradition of 19th-century Breton folk furniture.
The façade is decorated with stylized flower vases and foliage scrolls, framed by geometric carvings. The frieze drawer is enriched with fine detailing, while the scalloped apron and scroll feet enhance the rustic elegance. The original iron fittings highlight its authenticity.
👉 Why is this piece typically Breton?
This sideboard embodies the hallmarks of traditional Breton furniture:
Carved decoration: floral vases, foliage and geometric motifs, inspired by nature and regional symbolism.
Solid oak: the preferred wood in Brittany, resistant to humidity and developing a deep patina.
Typical structure: a frieze drawer with two carved doors and a scalloped base, characteristic of Quimper workshops.
Regional identity: furniture marked by a strong folk and cultural heritage, distinct from urban styles.
More than just a cupboard, this is a cultural statement and an authentic piece of Breton heritage.
A decorative and functional sideboard, perfect for a country house, a collector’s interior, or as a statement element in a modern setting.
