Early 19th century French fruitwood & oak dough bin/petrin.

The well patinated three plank cleated top, above a canted bin with deep wedge corner joints, joined to an oak planked floor.

The base with a plain frieze, resting on attractive out swept shaped legs.

Fantastic overall colour and patination.

I have four petrin’s in my showroom at present and several more in storage, all completely different.

Perfect as sofa tables, entrance tables, hall tables (if deep) living room sideboard, landing tables, bay window table, also perfect as a room divider in large apartment or large living room.

To store, linen, wine, photo albums etc…

A piece like this in your home would usually be a great conversation topic, (great promotion for me) as so unusual and stylish.

Over the past 33 years I’ve sold many to interior designers, for this exact purpose.

To see many I’ve sold over the last few years, search my archives, worth a look.
