Handcrafted wooden sideboard finished with gold-leaf mouldings

Handcrafted wooden sideboard with gold leaf mouldings – period painted decoration

Description
Elegant handcrafted wooden sideboard, finished with gold leaf mouldings.

The piece comes in a soft cream tone, which sets off the harmonious shapes and the rich decoration. The gold leaf mouldings are worked and chased with care, giving the whole light and depth.

The body has doors and three wide drawers. The inside is practical, divided by two shelves, right for tableware, glass or linen.

The real protagonist is the painted decoration. The surfaces tell of aristocratic life in the eighteenth century, with ladies and gentlemen shown hunting and at leisure in the country.

The whole is enriched by floral motifs, fruit and butterflies, which complete the composition with elegance and lightness.
