Sylvie Favorite

French Plate Cupboard

France, 20th Century

$2,895

A piece we almost kept for ourselves. Found outside Lyon and dating to the early 20th century, this French plate cupboard was once the pride of a farmhouse kitchen, where every shelf held rows of hand-thrown pottery and Sunday china. The tall frame and scalloped apron rest on elegant splayed feet, with two small drawers at the center for linens or utensils. Made from warm-toned wood that’s mellowed beautifully over time, it carries the quiet precision of provincial joinery. Sylvie loves it as a dining room showpiece or kitchen shelving for stacked ceramics, cookbooks, and glassware.

    This one is in really good condition, with gleaming finish. As with many antiques, this piece may show gentle repairs, age cracks, patina, old, inactive woodworm holes, and stains - just the way we like it.
