19th Century Country French Buffet ~ Linen Press
About the Item
19th Century Country French Buffet ~ Linen Press was designed to provide all the storage space needed by a large family for all their linens and flatware needed for setting a grand table! Hand-crafted entirely from quarter-sawn oak and cast brass, it features a solid plank beveled surface for display and serving, with no less than three top drawers and three bin-size drawers all of which are fitted with cast brass key guards or bale pulls with guards. Those with key guards, like the cabinet doors, require a key (supplied) to use as a pull. Such a design creates a clean look so favored by the French. The cabinet doors are hung with brass barrel hinges, and feature the only fancy molding with a bold scrollwork in the upper frame. A straight baseboard and bun feet complete the exterior visual appointments. Open the drawers and doors to reveal a voluminous storage capacity which you'll really come to appreciate. Nobody can have TOO much storage, right? Note the hand-hewn chamfered solid planks on the back side.

- Antique Liegoise Country French Buffet, Linen PressLocated in Dallas, TXAntique Liegoise Country French buffet ~ linen press is a remarkable example of the incredibly high quality of furnishings produced in the storied region around Liege. A manufacturing and marketing center for hundreds of years, it lies in the French speaking southeastern portion of what is today called Belgium. The traditions of the finest hand-craftsmanship predate the last several geopolitical designations, with techniques that produced sturdy pieces from the local old-growth oak. This example combines styling influence from the Louis XIII, Louis XIV and Louis XV styles, spanning over two centuries of artistic expression in wood. The wood has been painstakingly stripped using our proprietary process that retains the natural patina of the wood and presents a soft presence in the room. Mitered corners and a step-front center section produce visual appeal from all angles. Two commodious cabinets and a total of six spacious drawers attain a functionality that makes it extremely versatile. Cast brass key guards accentuate the facade, which includes a center tier of bowfront drawers...Category
