Extremely Rare 18th Century French Solid Yew-wood Armoire

Extremely Rare 18th Century French Solid Yew-wood Armoire

Extremely rare 18th century French solid yew-wood armoire.

The unusual overall straight lines will allow this distinctive piece to be easily placed into any home.

Once we have completed a few minor repairs in the workshop, not even new waxes need be applied.

As the 250 years of wax build up, merely needs a good buff to bring up a wonderful patina.

Late 19th Century European Majolica Jardinière-Vase

Late 19th Century European Majolica Jardinière-Vase

Late 19th century European Majolica Jardinière-Vase.

Stunning colours and design.

Majolica originated 14th Century Italy, around 1370, Tuscany and Umbria.

Over the years I have sold hundreds of English and French Green Majolica plates and the likes. Rarely have I stocked the more Italian style.

Personally, I love this vase.

This piece of art could sit on any surface, period to modern and oozing style.
