Antique Liegoise Country French Buffet, Linen Press
Located in Dallas, TX
Antique 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...

Antique French Renaissance Armoire Linen Press Library Bookcase China Cabinet
Located in Dayton, OH
An exquisite French Renaissance Revival Bibliotheque, Linen press or display cabinet. Circa mid 19th cenutry. A large rectangular oak case centered by original 3/4 length glass between turned and fluted columns. Lower side of doors features an inset baroque cartouche with fruit basket and foliate motif within an arched deisgn. Upper molding is stylized with a dentil molding over acanthus frieze. Opens to four adjustable shelves. Case is supported by bun feet.
With large full length doors, we often look at antique armoires as passageways to secret rooms or even different worlds. While most antique armoires don’t take us to a different dimension, they nonetheless add incredible charm and beauty to both new and old homes alike.
Before closets were built into rooms, a solid wood free-standing wardrobe or “armoire” (French for Wardrobe) was standard for storing clothes. However, not all could afford such a luxury, and many antique wardrobes belonged to the upper classes who owned more than one set of clothes.
Thus, on antique armoires from the 17th, 18th and 19th centuries, we often see artistic embellishments and luxurious details. Antique French armoires often have Rococo or Gothic carvings, mirrored doors and naturalistic carvings. These feminine elements on antique French armoires demonstrate a high level of craftsmanship and artistry afforded only by the rich.
The phrase Knock-down referes to the ability for these pieces to be easily disassembled and re-assembled. This allowed for these massive...

Vintage, New and Antique Linen Presses
A vintage, new or antique linen press is a great way to prevent wrinkles while storing linens in a space that will remain dry.
Linen presses are a type of storage cabinet used to store domestic linens such as bedsheets, napkins and tablecloths. Early models had storage space as well as a pressing device, with some also having features that aired the linens. The purpose of these linen presses was to protect and care for valuable textiles.
These cupboards were popular from the 17th century to the 19th century in Europe and the United States, after which more modern options, like wardrobes and ironing boards, were widely adopted.
Early linen presses were often very simple, but over the years they became more complex and ornate with carved wooden details. As they frequently borrow elements from cupboards and wardrobes, linen presses are perfect for adding storage space to a home. Some can display decorative objects like dinnerware while storing sheets and other linen essentials in drawers.
While they have a practical purpose, linen presses can set the tone for a room especially because their large size makes them a focal point. Some have rustic looks, others have polished wood surfaces that reflect light, making a room seem brighter.
On 1stDibs, a range of vintage, new and antique linen presses can be found for anyone in need of a storage solution. They range from mid-century modern linen presses with angular lines, practical features and symmetrical shapes to Rococo pieces with soft lines, carved elements and delicate details.
