About the Item

Antique French Cabinet Carved Oak Demeter Harvest Cornucopia Greek Goddess. Direct from France, a beautifully hand carved 19th century French “confiturier’ cabinet, which is an extremely versatile size, perfect for placement in any room, and a customer favorite for use as a wine cabinet. The ‘story’ here is all about the carvings, with the door panel featuring a full-length carved depiction of “Demeter, the Goddess of the Harvest”, holding a cornucopia of fruits and wheat, clothed in a classic Greek chiton. What a stunning conversation piece!! The upper drawer front is also completely carved with a center cherub face; additional foliate carvings run the entire length of the front edges to the carved cabriole feet, with a lower carved shell serpentine apron between. circa1880.

  • Antique French Carved Bonnetiere Armoire Cabinet Brittany Breton Ship Spindle
    Located in Shreveport, LA
    Antique French Carved Bonnetiere Armoire Cabinet Brittany Breton Ship Spindle. Direct from France, a lovely antique French armoire or “bonnetiere” cabinet, with gorgeous hand carvings throughout. The slender, smaller size makes a “bonnetiere” highly sought after for today’s home, as they can easily be placed in a variety of locations. Of course, the term “bonnetiere” comes from these early 18th and 19th century cabinets that were used for the elaborate ladies’ bonnets and linens. NOTE: The style and design are true to the Celtic roots of the Brittany region of France, which was heavily dependent on fishing and maritime, so the hand carvings are noted for spindled ship’s wheels and symbolic use of men and women in traditional Celtic dress to represent their strong work ethic, piety, and the enjoyment of life. All these Breton carved features are present in this cabinet! The crown features a wide band of open “ships wheel” spindles with carvings to either side. The full-length door has three different carved panels with half circle “spindle” designs on the upper and lower portions. The center panel has corner spindles framing the round carved panel...
