Buffet Deux Corps with Clock, of Vendée origin.
The upper part has an identical composition on each side, namely three niches: bare for those at the bottom, with molded bars for those at the top. Their frames are also ornate, and the high sleepers are scalloped.
In the middle, an openwork door opening with a brass button, is decorated with a Carved Acacia Sculpture, representing the Gothic Catholic Warheads. It houses a Brass Lyre Balancer, in working order.
This set is topped with a Generous Fronton, with Serrated Side Consoles and cut in windings. In the center, a Corniche in Chapeau de Gendarme marries a small glass door enclosing the clock head. The latter is embellished with a religious scene in Brass, representing four characters and a sheep.
The lower part of this Two Body Buffet is made up of two doors with cherry wood panels and ash frames. They are provided with brass entries, and locks in working order accompanied by their keys. The interior is equipped with a shelf placed on fixed battens. As a belt, this Cabinet offers two drawers. The one on the left has a pull handle attached to a floral motif, the one on the right has a keyhole in the form of an escutcheon. All these toppings are Original. A last drawer is hidden in the middle of the other two. It is revealed using a push-button accessible from inside the lower part.
The Vendée origin of this Buffet Deux Corps sets it apart from its peers. We are in the presence of an Atypical Furniture which combines Library, Dresser, Buffet and Comtoise Clock. The perpetual sway of the latter will give life to your interior, and punctuate time with a pleasant flavor of Yesteryear.
