Bleached English Oak Jacobean Dresser Base / Sideboard / Buffet, 18th Century

About the Item

Period Jacobean dresser base / sideboard hand-crafted in England in the early 1800s (maybe even late 1700s) using oak and pegged construction. The dresser shows the typical molding decorations of the Jacobean style and features three inset drawers. The sides are made of chamfered boards framed in flat molding and the top features two long boards, with ogee edges sitting on hand-carved molding nailed to the case. The front three legs are hand-turned, whereas the two hind legs are squared. This is a beautiful and well-build dresser that will work great in an entryway, living room or dining room. The drawers all work great and can be used on a daily basis. Despite being pretty long and very old, the light color of the wood makes it look less imposing and very modern. The striations of the grain of the wood and the molding provide it with a lot of depth and make this a one of a kind piece.

18th Century Bleached Walnut Italian Credenza, Buffet, Sideboard
Located in Carmine, TX
Walnut credenza handcrafted in Italy in the mid 1700s and bleached recently. Don't let its delicate overall appearance fool you because, as my lower back can attest, this baby is heavy. This is a beautiful credenza that follow the typical italian style with slanted sides, which create small triangular storage spaces on either sides of the two main front doors and drawer. Overall the credenza is very straight in lines. The drawers have flat overlay fronts, and the doors show chamfered panels with a raised carving and are framed by flat molding. The carving and molding help giving the piece some depth and decoration. The bleaching process also provided the credenza with additional warmth, depth and decoration, by bringing out the beautiful grain and underlying colors of the wood. The top of the credenza is composed of boards with ogee edge nailed to the main case. On the inside the credenza is very spacious, providing plenty of storage space. Overall this is a beautiful piece that has lived a long life, and has received some help in "hanging in there" over the years. This is a piece that will fit well with both modern and...
