About the Item
This exquisite ebonized corner cabinet, known as an “encoignure” in French, dates back to the elegant Napoléon III period of the late 19th century. Beautifully crafted, it features a striking black lacquered finish that enhances its refined architectural lines and curved façade. The original marble top, shaped to fit perfectly into a corner, displays delicate gray veining, adding a luxurious touch to this already sophisticated piece.
The cabinet’s door is adorned with a curved glass panel, offering a graceful view of the interior, which has been lined in a rich blue velvet, creating a perfect backdrop for displaying fine objects or collectibles. The interior includes two shaped shelves, also covered in matching velvet, providing both style and functionality.
Constructed using traditional craftsmanship techniques, the dovetail joints and solid oak back are clear indicators of the piece’s authenticity and quality. While it retains its original charm, this cabinet bears subtle signs of time, including light wear on the lacquer and some natural patina on the marble, which only adds to its character.
Perfect for a sophisticated living space, hallway, or bedroom, this rare Napoléon III encoignure will bring a touch of French elegance and historical charm to any interior. Its compact size makes it ideal for both decorative and practical use.
