About the Item
Empire Cabinet
This exquisite Empire Cabinet dates from around 1800 and is a testament to the high craftsmanship and elegant design that prevailed in French furniture production during this era. The Cabinet is veneered in fine cherry wood and rests on a sturdy softwood body, creating a harmonious blend of robustness and aesthetics.
This characteristic brass moldings along the edges add an attractive accent to the piece and underscore the typical splendor of the Empire style. Original fittings are not only functional but also artfully designed, contributing to the elegance of the cabinet. Of particular note are the ornate brass paw feet, which lend the piece a majestic dignity while also providing stability.
The Cabinet has two doors and conceals two practical shelves behind its doors. These allow for versatile use, whether for storing dishes, textiles, or collectibles. The sophisticated interior layout offers ample space and can be customized.
Another notable feature is the original marble top that completes this half-cabinet. The marble, with its characteristic grain, not only adds a luxurious touch but also provides a functional surface for decorative arrangements or for displaying everyday objects.
Overall, this Empire half-cabinet represents an outstanding example of classic French design, whose timeless elegance is still appreciated today. It is not only a functional piece of furniture but also a significant collectible for lovers of antique furniture and the Empire style.
