19th Century Louis XV Walnut Corner Cabinet with Bevelled Mirror

About the Item

This French Louis XV corner cabinet is made fo beautiful walnut, and dates back to the 19th century Circa 1830. The piece offers incredibly elaborate floriate carving throughout, accompanied by hand chased bronze hardware. The cabinet has a bottom drawer and features a single door with beveled mirror in the upper panel. The shell motif, which is classic to the Louis XV era, is abundant throughout the carving, and is accompanied by a carved, contoured apron at top. Short cabriole legs support the aforementioned details, culminating in a beautiful hand carved walnut corner piece. This piece is a collection of a fourth generation, family owned business in New Orleans called The French Antique Shop. The store was first opened by Marie and Marcel Granet in Paris when they married in 1927. A jewish family, they came to the United States before the outbreak of the Second World War, leaving on the last boat out of Paris' port, Le Havre. When they reached New Orleans, they fell in love with the Vieux Carre as it reminded them of home. Their first shop here in New Orleans was located on Chartres Street in the French Quarter and was stocked originally with pieces they had brought with them from Paris. They moved to Royal Street and settled in their present expanded location at 225 Royal Street in 1947. Today, the shop is run by the third and fourth generation, Marc, and his two sons Michael and Brian. By purchasing from our shop, you're supporting a family run business which focuses on artisan made, high quality craft with an emphasis on quality. Thank you for helping us continue a dream started four generations ago!
