SaleInspired by the grandeur of 17th century England, this early 1900s Renaissance Revival buffet reflects the bold character and richly carved detail associated with the Jacobean tradition. Substantial in presence and deeply sculptural in form, it carries the weight and dignity of historic English craftsmanship.
Rendered in richly toned oak, the surface reveals depth and warmth enhanced by a beautifully aged finish. The upper tier features intricate carved panels, including stylized strapwork and heraldic-inspired motifs, framed by turned supports that add architectural rhythm and visual strength. The frieze is adorned with carved scrolling foliage and grape clusters, a classic Renaissance motif symbolizing abundance and hospitality.
Below, paneled cabinet doors are accented with carved rosettes and framed moldings, while original hardware reinforces the period character. The layered construction and hand-carved ornament create dimension and shadow, giving the piece a commanding yet refined aesthetic.
Renaissance Revival furniture of the early 20th century celebrated the romance of England’s historic past, reinterpreting Jacobean forms for grand dining rooms and stately interiors. This buffet captures that spirit beautifully, offering both visual drama and practical storage within a timeless silhouette.
Circa early 1900s.
