Found in Avignon, this 20th-century Provençal sideboard is a long four-door enfilade in the Louis XV style of the south, with the shaped door panels, scalloped tops, and curved iron escutcheons that have run through Provençal cabinetwork for three centuries. Four small drawers sit in a row above the four lower doors, the kind of layout that turns a sideboard into the central piece of a long dining room: silver and napkins above, plates and bottles below. The escutcheons are forged in the deep curves of the Provençal blacksmith tradition, and the original brass key still turns in every lock. Sylvie places it in a dining room with a row of brass candlesticks across the top and the key left in the locks.
