French Country 1780's Carved Fruitwood Armoire

— $5,750.00 —

    Authentic country French or French Provincial furniture from about 1780, this historic armoire is solid fruitwood, delicately hand carved with traditional artistic motifs.

There are repairs and losses as would be expected on a true antique of this age, every plank is hand hewn and planed. Door and side panels are raised. Warm and satiny, the golden finish is excellent with glowing patina. Doors lift off original hand-wrought hinges to facilitate moving. Corners are secured with hand-carved wooden pegs.

The working lock, key and shelves were replaced, probably over a century ago. This rugged and usable antique furniture measures 4'3" wide, 25" deep and 5'6" tall.
