Late 18th Century French Directoire Period Cherry Enfilade Buffet

About the Item

An elegant late 18th century French Directoire period enfilade buffet, handcrafted from solid cherrywood in Saint-Malo, a historic port city in the Brittany region, circa 1790s. Showcasing the restrained elegance and clean lines characteristic of the Directoire style, this timeless piece features a well-proportioned rectangular plank top above three drawers adorned with circular brass pulls, ideal for storing flatware, linens, and serving utensils. Below, three panel doors, divided by classic pilasters, open to reveal a spacious interior with a single shelf, offering ample storage for dinnerware, glassware, serving platters, and decorative pieces. Raised on block feet, the enfilade boasts a warm patina that highlights the natural beauty of the cherrywood, a testament to its age and craftsmanship. Versatile and refined, this antique French buffet is perfect for use as a sideboard in a dining room, a stylish storage piece in a living space, or even a statement console in an entryway, effortlessly blending with both traditional and contemporary interiors.
