Antique Queen Anne Style Buffet



Queen Anne furniture has certain clearly defined characteristics of form, which enable one to distinguish it at once from antecedent types. A truly English style was established in this period. The cyma curve is characteristic on all Queen Anne furniture. Shell carving was the most popular ornament. Cabriole legs were common. Walnut was the wood chiefly used, both solid and in veneering, although oak was still used to some extent. The importation of lacquered furniture from the East during the last half of the 17th century resulted in efforts by English craftsmen to imitate it and many pieces of this period are decorated in that manner. This magnificent cabinet is a prime example of the Queen Anne style. Made from wonderful golden oak, this piece glows! This piece features large Queen Anne style cabriole legs that are so common in this wonderful style. With the original hardware intact this antique is truly a wonderful investment piece that is as gorgeous as it is valuable! Lots of space to serve your delicious dishes on top and plenty of storage in the blind cupboards and drawers below! This is the perfect piece to impress all your dinner guests when entertaining. With antiques such as this, you are only limited by your imagination!
