Early 19th Century Country French Armoire
About the Item
Early 19th century country French Armoire is a prime example of one of the most important historical developments in the world of furniture. Back before the days of closets in every room, the armoire provided needed storage, and provided it in style! This example features a stately architecture with an elegantly flared crown molding situated atop the bonnet, which was left unadorned in order to direct attention two the fine yet restrained, whimsical carvings on the doors below. Angled traverses dissect the door panels and feature fine scrollwork with foliates and angled egg forms rendered in relief. Three external barrel hinges hang each door, complemented by finely detailed key guards, with fluting appearing on the rounded cornerposts as well as the center stile. Even the sides display the talents of the cabinetmakers, with raised chamfered panels between the crosspieces. Pegged mortise & tenon joinery was used throughout the design, even on the back with its rough hand-hewn solid planks.
