"Rare Regional Two-body Buffet, In Cherry - 1st Part Nineteenth"
Buffet Two Corps with Clock, of Vendée origin. The upper part has an identical composition on each side, namely three niches: bare for those at the bottom, with molded bars for those at the top. Their frames are also worked, and the high crosspieces are fretted. In the middle, an openwork door opening by a Brass button, is embellished with a Carved Acacia Sculpture, representing the Gothic Catholic Warheads. It houses a Brass Lyre Pendulum, in working order. This set is topped by a Generous Pediment, with Serrated Side Consoles and carved into windings. In the center, a Cornice in Gendarme's Hat hugs a small glass door containing the clock head. The latter is embellished with a religious scene in brass, representing four characters and a sheep. The lower part of this Sideboard Two Body is composed of two doors with panels in Cherry and frames in Ash. They are equipped with Brass entries, and locks in working order accompanied by their keys. The interior is equipped with a shelf placed on fixed cleats. As a belt, this piece of furniture offers two drawers. The one on the left has a pull handle fixed on a floral motif, the one on the right has an escutcheon in the shape of an escutcheon. All these fittings are original. A final drawer is concealed in the middle of the other two. It is revealed using a pusher accessible from inside the lower part. The Vendée origin of this Buffet Deux Corps sets it apart from its peers. We are in the presence of an Atypical Furniture which combines Library, Dresser, Buffet and Comtoise Clock. The perpetual swinging of the latter will give life to your interior, and will punctuate time with a pleasant flavor of yesteryear. ******** Period: 1st part of the 19th century Excellent condition after restoration in our workshop.
