Pair of 18th Century French Communication Doors

Offered by: Jacqueline Adams Antiques

Description
This pair of 18th-century French communication doors showcases elegant craftsmanship and a rich historical appeal. The doors feature a traditional paneled design, with the upper and lower sections framed in deep rectangular panels that offer a sense of timeless sophistication. The two central panels are more intricately shaped, with softly curved detailing adding visual interest and grace. The wood exhibits a warm, honeyed patina that speaks to its age and the quality of the material, likely a type of oak or walnut, commonly used during the period for its durability and beauty.

The hardware includes a rustic metal latch across the center, along with round escutcheon plates that hint at the door’s original locking mechanisms. Hinges are visible, contributing to the authentic vintage charm of the piece. Overall, the doors maintain their original integrity with subtle signs of age and wear, reflecting the passage of time while preserving their stately, functional design.

Ideal for use in a period restoration or as a statement piece in a more contemporary space, these doors combine form and function, evoking the elegance of French design from the 1700s. They would be a perfect fit for interiors looking to incorporate historical elements with an authentic European flair.
