18th Century French Louis XVI Vaisselier ~ Buffet is a marvel of rural artisanship, with stately neoclassical architecture melded with finely detailed wood sculpting to create the splendid craftsmanship you see before you!  Two shelves above, topped with a finely molded crown, overlook the main casework surface for three display spaces in total, not including the lower shelf which has a gallery rail and is suitable for storage or additional display.  In between is the real eye-catcher ~ two exquisitely hand-carved cabinet doors separated by three drawers that are mounted with finely detailed brass bale pulls which complement the brass key guards on the adjacent cabinets.  The upper tiers are supported by tapered and fluted columns for a timeless look.
Circa 1790s
