18th century French buffet deux corps - oak 101¼"

Dating from the eighteenth-century, this superb, rustic kitchen buffet or deux corps is made from oak with a recently applied blue patina to the top section. Made in the Ile de France region (that includes Paris). Stamped with the cabinet maker's initials GA, possibly for the ebeniste Gailliard, Antoine. All original hardware except for the locks. The bottom section has one shelf, the top has three insert shelves that have been remade. Modifications have been made as it has been restored.
