19th-Century French Louis XVI Mahogany Vitrine Display Cabinet
19th-Century French Louis XVI Style Mahogany Vitrine
An exceptional example of 19th-century French cabinetmaking, this Louis XVI revival vitrine combines classical proportion with refined decorative detail. The warm, deep tones of solid mahogany are set off by delicate brass and bronze accents, while glass doors and panels invite admiration of whatever is displayed within — fine china, art glass, silver, or a treasured collection of curiosities.
The Louis XVI style, with its characteristic straight lines, fluted pilasters, and restrained classical ornament, represents the height of French neoclassical elegance. A piece of this period and quality is as much an artwork as it is a piece of furniture.
