This period immediately before the English civil war was truly the "Age of Oak." English oak cut from the heart of the tree was the principal wood at that time both for furniture and for buildings, although some of the other native woods were used to some extent. Strength and solidity were characteristics of the period, and furniture of great magnificence was made to furnish the important houses in England. The Tudor rose and linen-fold paneling are characteristic of this period. The influence of the Renaissance was felt in England during the latter part of the period, resulting in more luxurious surroundings in the homes of the wealthier class. Tudor furniture retains the Gothic structure but adds much Renaissance carving and some inlay. This incredible piece is a prime example of the Tudor style. Crafted from the best oak, this piece shines! You will love the geometric pattern on the outer cabinet doors, inset with quarter-sawn oak veneers. The carvings on the inner doors are wonderful, featuring a charming floral design and a pair of scenes from peasant life. The marvelous backsplash is made from the same gorgeous oak and features two awesome pillars. This piece would look amazing in your dining room. With plenty of serving space on top and storage space below, this piece is the perfect addition to any incredible dining set. c563oc254
