Two-piece antique Louis XV oak corner cabinets from France, 219 cm high, 100 cm wide, 46 cm deep, in excellent condition, comprising an upper glazed vitrine and a lower solid-wood buffet, lockable and transportable as separate parts.
Description from the seller
Exceptional and rare matching two-part corner cupboards (two-sections corner furniture) in the Louis XV style.
Built in solid oak of very high quality cabinetmaking, these two pieces form a perfect pair, ideal for symmetrically furnishing the corners of a dining room or living room.
Top part (The tall sideboard / Corner display cabinet)
Facade: Each corner cupboard opens with a bow-front glass door in the form of a gendarme’s hat in its upper section, perfectly following the line of the moulded cornice.
Interior: The glassed space offers three display levels thanks to sturdy oak angle shelves, perfect for showing collectibles, crystal, or dinnerware.
Sculptures: The upper crosspiece under the cornice is richly carved with vegetal motifs and scrolls in relief.
Bottom part (The lower corner sideboard)
Drawer: As a belt, each piece features a large curved corner drawer, adorned with fine foliate sculptures and equipped with a pair of original drooping handles in chiselled bronze.
Solid door: The lower section opens with a solid door whose central panel is richly carved in bas-relief with a hanging floral medallion and stylised cartouches, in perfect harmony with the rest of the dining room set.
Pedestal and Features
The lower crosspiece is scrolled and centered with a pierced shell carving.
Each piece rests at the front on curved feet (stag feet) ending in a rolled volute.
Logistics: The upper parts detach from the lower parts (two-body furniture), which greatly facilitates transport and installation. Very good overall condition, sound wood and superb patina.
