A buffet inspired by the Empire period

Sideboards are a type of low-height storage unit, similar to chests of drawers. But instead of opening on the front with large drawers like the latter, they have one, two or three doors and drawers depending on the model. These types of furniture are used to store table linens, dishes, cutlery and other objects. Very elegant display piece, this Napoleon III sideboard has an authentic and original appearance with its well-crafted beech structure. It contains all the features required for a very practical and decorative piece of furniture. This model even has two doors with a lock and two drawers at the top, to accommodate a large number of objects. It is of very high quality cabinetmaking, like all the works of Pierre Migeon II (1701-1758), or those of Marie-Antoinette's favorite cabinetmaker, Jean-Henri Riesener (1734-1806). The latter is even the great symbol of Louis XV furniture. His work is reflected in the presence of precise lines linked to the fine marquetry of precious woods, in particular here rosewood, blond mahogany, American walnut and amaranth as well as the fine work of the bronze decoration.
