18th c. Walnut Buffet

Good things come to those who wait 100 years. This 19th-century walnut buffet comes complete with its original key, featuring two paneled doors and an interior shelf for practical storage. Buffets like this were a staple in French homes, crafted by skilled artisans to store fine tableware, silver, and linens safely behind solid wood doors. The elegant panels and sturdy construction reflect the influence of provincial French design, prized for balancing beauty with everyday utility. Sylvie imagines it as a moody liquor cabinet, stocked with vintage glassware and bottles, or as a linen cupboard keeping crisp textiles tucked neatly away.
