The Breton style is as distinctive as its special culture and easily recognizable due to its very ornate carvings. Historically, the local economy in Brittany was heavily dependent on fishing and maritime activities, so one often finds circles and ship's wheels as a common decorative motif in the Brittany Style of antique furniture. Often antique furniture in the Brittany Style was carved out of chestnut or oak, with a very dark finish. A hallmark feature of the Brittany Style of French Country Antique Furniture is the symbolic use of men and women in traditional Celtic dress to represent a strong work ethic, piety, and the enjoyment of life. Measurements: 64” ht. x 52” x 19.5”. Two pieces: Upper carved panel top, 25” ht. x 47” x 12”. Lower base of drawers and open shelves, 39.5” ht. x 52” x 19.5”. Open lower shelves, middle shelf, 13” ht. x 48” x 17.5”. Open lowest shelf, 12.5” ht. x 48” x 16”. NOTE: All of our antiques are direct from Europe. I personally select each item for the quality, design and unique characteristics that you will always find in our distinctive inventory at Geaux Vintage Antiques. …” with all that, why ‘Geaux’ anywhere else?” …
