An absolutely stunning hand-carved, hand-pegged walnut armoire. A large Louis Philippe-style crown cornice sits just above a carved Directoire-style frieze. Two large, Louis XV-style shaped doors equipped with a working lock and latch are hung on barrel hinges. They are decorated with fabulously carved, shaped panels with a central fluted pilaster between. The interior is outfitted with four fixed shelves and measures 20-¼”D. The apron features a modest central circular cartouche with a floral center and a shaped edge with lines that continue onto the impressive escargot feet.
