A simple but impressive crafted buffet which was part of the inventory of a bourgeouis villa near Vienna. The artfully set oakwood veneer with gorgeous inlayed frameworks combined with the fantastic looking design makes this fully restored 18th century cabinet a real eye-catcher. The beveled pilasters on the highboy show lovely carved wooden elements looking like litte flowers. Coming in perfect refurbished condition, this 18th century josephinism cabinet/ buffet would be the perfect addition for a dining room or a large living room.
