Italian 18th Century Oak Sideboard

About the Item

An Italian solid oak sideboard, circa 1780, exhibiting dramatic carvings and depth of color that will have undeniable magnitude in any room. The buffet has a very tactile surface, the planks still display the ripples from having been milled by hand, and pieced together with wood dowels. On the front of the case, two doors and three pilasters exhibit distinctly carved motifs in architectural and foliate inspired shapes. Behind the doors, which close with a carved wood latch, is a compartment with a single shelf, 16 ¾” deep. This heavy and solid oak sideboard is set upon a pair of sled legs at either side that protrude as bracket-style front feet, raising the piece off the floor. The dark, smooth wood has been cleaned and polished with a French paste wax to reveal every historic detail gained over the past three centuries. Please view the additional images for further detail on the piece.

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...
