18th c. Oak Buffet
France, 18th Century
$1,895
An absolute showstopper! This grand 18th-century oak buffet, discovered in a maison in St. Rémy de Provence, embodies the elegance and craftsmanship of provincial French furniture at its height. Built during a time when such pieces were made to last centuries, it features thick burl veneer panels, hand-carved flourishes, and an original working key. Buffets of this scale and condition are increasingly rare, often passed down through generations as heirlooms. Sylvie loves it in a living room or bedroom, topped with books and a treasured vessel, where its presence quietly commands the whole space.

Notes from Sylvie:
This antique piece wears its history beautifully—past woodworm holes, repairs, cracks, patina, and stains all add to its character. There are stains and cracks to the thick veneer on the front panels. the key can be difficult to turn, but it functions.
