About the Item

A stunning, late 19th century French buffet in a variety of exotic materials that radiates sophistication and unabashed luxury in a dining room or other living space. The top surface of brecciated marble features patches of gray and taupe stone surrounded by ribbons of white and orange veining, finished with a bowed front in the center that conforms to the slight projection of the storage case below. Burled maple veneer wrapping the storage case exhibits uniquely figured patterns of tightly swirled grain and dense accumulation of “eyes” in a glorious shade of honey-gold. Ebonized inlay in thin pinstripes creates definition on the two drawer front and two doors, with a geometric inlay using mahogany applied to the curved panel at center. Neoclassical ormolu appliques in floral motif armor the front corners, matching the swagged drawer handles and ornate escutcheons over the doors. Both doors retain working locks to enclose the undivided cabinet offering a long, fixed shelf, 15 ¾” deep. Conical feet nod to modernity without the expected fluting, raising the piece from the floor. Cleaned, tightened, and polished with French paste wax this fascinating antique buffet is ready for your interior. Please view the detailed images to see the current condition as there are a few scratches in the stone and areas of separation in the wood.
