About the Item

An outstanding and exceptionally rare early nineteenth-century burr elm buffet, notable for its rich colour, striking grain pattern, and elegant proportions. This refined piece features two short drawers above a pair of panelled cupboard doors, all beautifully crafted from highly figured burr elm, showcasing the wood’s natural depth and character. Raised on shaped bracket feet, the buffet retains its original lock and key—an increasingly rare detail that adds to its authenticity and charm. The warmth and complexity of the elm, paired with the understated sophistication of its design, make this a true collector’s piece. A fine example of early 1800s craftsmanship, this buffet would elevate any interior—traditional or contemporary—with its timeless appeal and historical significance.
