This wonderful ebonised credenza was crafted in England circa 1870.You would be excused for thinking this piece is French! The English loved to imitate their luxe style throughout the ages. Made from ebonised wood, this piece has a stunning glossy finish and has been lovingly maintained throughout its life. The piece has a slight breakfront design and is flanked by glazed curved side doors with lined interior shelving. The central door is abundant with marquetry inlays to the front panel. Marquetry inlays are also present on the other doors and panels, as are fine inlaid satinwood borders, casting a wonderful contrast in colours. What really sets this piece off is the flashy gilt bronze mounts, escutcheons, and gilt beadwork and edging all over the credenza. All have been cast to the highest quality and add that special ‘bling’ we all love. The credenza rests on beautifully turned feet, displaying that next level craftsmanship of the Victorian era. A fabulous piece for an apartment, hallway, or dining room that makes a real statement.
