Description from the seller
A lovely antique Napoleon III French Cave à Liqueur (liquor cabinet) dating from around 1860 to 1900. These luxurious portable bars were designed to display and store fine spirits.
The cabinet folds open and upwards from the front, with two side panels that can be opened outwards: The case is composed of veneered and black lacquered wood with brass trim strips around the edges. The top and front have an inlaid central medallion in with brass and mother-of-pearl.
Inside sits a removable tiered tray with gilt handle. There are four carafes (only 3 stoppers) and 10 shot glasses. They are of antique hand blown crystal with hand engraved floral motifs; presumably Baccarat or St. Louis (see etched numbers on carafe collar which is typical for Baccarat).
Condition: Needs some restoration to be perfect but is presentable as is. The bottom part of the lock is missing, 2 filets from the bottom front are missing, a brass element from a medallion is missing (not noticeable unless pointed out), one of the glasses has a fleabite on the rim.
Dimensions: 32.7 cm long, 24.3 cm wide, 27.2 cm high, ± 3-4 kg.
