Description
A French Louis XV period walnut buffet from the 18th century with two doors and carved arching accents. Immerse yourself in the timeless allure of French Louis XV design with this walnut buffet from the 18th century. Crafted with exquisite attention to detail, this piece showcases the elegance and sophistication of the era.

The buffet features a rectangular planked top with serpentine lines in the front, adding a touch of graceful curvature to the overall silhouette. Two doors on the facade command attention, adorned with recessed panels that serve as a backdrop for the carved scrolling motifs. These unusual motifs stand out beautifully against the walnut wood, creating a captivating visual focal point. Iron hardware enhances the authenticity of the piece.
