Lovely Scriban / Showcase furniture in solid walnut, composed of two bodies, and which we will choose to describe in three stages.
The upper part consists of a library, opening with two large glass doors. They are adorned with moldings forming four frames and designed to break, in other words shaped by the size of the wood in its thickness. They discover three 21 cm wide shelves, on racks and therefore adjustable at will on a total storage height of 136 cm. This first body is surmounted by a high worked cross, itself crowned with a curved and cut cornice.
The second space is an inclined flavored scriban, the visible panel with medallions with decorations identical to those described above. It reveals an astonishing multitude of small storage: niches, drawers with curved lines ten (and not twelve as one could imagine), or even compartments hidden by their façades in amaranth carved in half columns turned. from the same wood, a small concave door discovers a last locker.
These first two spaces lock. They are equipped with inputs of iron cut in iron and are supplied with their respective keys.
The last element of this second body is a chest of drawers opening by three drawers 11 cm deep and each endowed with two print buttons. Note that they were cut in the two -way curve, which required substantial cabinetmaking. Their interiors are in solid cherry trees. The angles of this chest of drawers also have rounded lines and are embellished, just like the Low Chantourne, with sculptures.
The sides of this complete piece of furniture are also embellished with moldings with significant reliefs.
The rear consists of a mixture of cherry and oak.
The whole, removable in two bodies by a simple screw system, rests on four feet snails perched on heels.
We will appreciate the remarkable quality of this regional port furniture, probably from La Rochelle (17).
