Description
Dimensions: 39 ¼” H x 79 ¼” W x 26 ½” D
An intriguing French walnut enfilade from the 19th century, more transitional than Neoclassical in style, blending the regal elements of Louis XVI with the warmth and patina of Provincial construction. Shaped with turreted corners the smooth planks of the top are arranged in a breadboard formation on the short sides highlighting the beauty of the grain and the front edge uses two planks intersecting with an angular splice. Within the frieze sit three drawers: the left and right drawers open with bail handles, whereas the middle drawer retains a working lock & key above the handle. Note the right drawer is conveniently divided into smaller sections. Below the drawers are three paneled doors separated by a pair of fluted “pilasters” enclosing a divided cabinet each with one shelf, approximately 20 ½” deep. All doors have working locks and keys, with the left & center doors paired to enclose one cabinet and the right door represents a smaller compartment. The doors have a wonderful surprise when open as they have been covered in a preppy green fabric outlined in gold tape trim! Turned, “toupie” feet are the finishing touch to elevate the timeless design. Cleaned and polished with a French paste wax, this antique enfilade is ready for your interior.
