19th Century French Louis XVI Marble Top Inlaid Buffet is a masterpiece of the cabinetmaker's art!  Using solid old-growth oak, the artisans created a very solid casework with broadly rounded sides creating a very traffic-friendly design.  The rounded cabinet doors feature diamond parquet framed by inlaid bordering in the classical Greek style.  Twin pilasters separate the rounded sides from the center section, and are adorned with bronze mounts at the top which also flanks a pair of drawers, each accessed with beautifully detailed bronze bale pulls.  The center cabinet doors are glazed to allow display, and are fitted with the same heavy bronze pendant pulls as the side cabinets.  The stripped oak finish adds a casual element to the overall appearance, while a finely contoured marble top completes the look!
Circa 1890s
