Louix XIV Armoire Original Finish Rare Find

Circa 1790
We are pleased to be offering this rare and elegant 18th century Louix XIV Armoire. Made of Burl wood Walnut in all its originality. Its classic lines and stylistic elements proclaim its nobility as a prime example of armoires constructed during the Louis XIV era in French furniture history. It is made of hand-hewn solid walnut, with three large doors. There are 2 drawers inside each panel, with a dowel on top to hang clothes. The door locks and the other hardware (hinges and drawer pulls) are original as well. The broad surfaces enhance the extraordinary natural richness and warm patina of the ancient French walnut. In keeping with construction techniques of the time, the armoire breaks down into 10 pieces for ease of mobility and to fit through small doors into large rooms. It is not only remarkable to find such an outstanding example of a Louis XIV antique armoire but also rare to find one so well preserved.

Dimensions: 99”H x 89”W x 33”D
