WONDERFUL LARGE ORIGINAL ANTIQUE FRENCH LOUIS XVI
PAINTED ARMOIRE

This stunningly decorative French antique armoire is in the Louis XVI style and dates
from around 1890. The armoire is in it's 'as found' painted colour which is a very pale grey
with faded gold highlights and is now naturally distressed with age, however, if preferred,
could be re-painted in your choice of colours - please ask for details.
The armoire has some very decorative features including swags of flowers and a ribboned
bow to the top.The interior is fitted with shelves but could be fitted with hanging
rails added from front to back if required.
The original bevelled glass double doors are in good condition apart from some loss of
silvering and some foxing, mainly to the right hand door in the pictures as shown.
This is commensurate with its age and could be considered as part of the character
and charm of the armoire, but if preferred the mirror could be re-silvered, replaced or the
silvering removed to both doors to leave the original, but now clear, glass.

As with all our wooden items it has been fully treated with a woodworm preventative
as a matter of course. There are some very minor knocks and bumps but this
is in keeping with the age of the armoire - c.1890.
