This antique cabinet was hand-carved in rich cherry wood in France during the 1700s. The rustic cupboard known as a “confiturier” would have been used to store preserves and marmalades in the 18th century (confiture). This piece is larger than the standard confiturier, making it a versatile addition to any modern home. Its white upholstered interior showcases a floral arabesque in shades of red, green, pink, brown, and yellow, with a convenient full-length shelf. The two belt drawers open effortlessly with drop-down pulls adorned by pierced iron mounts, while the hardware is encased in a crenelated box featuring alternating triangular inlays of dark brown and warm golden brown. The shaped apron boasts identical crenellation, forming a charming lozenge pattern around a regional star, flanked by two smaller stars at its tips. Supported by a pair of short cabriole legs in the front and two blocked feet in the back, our wide confiturier cabinet is for those wanting a charming regional French piece, surviving “dans son jus”, offering a timeless storage solution to any space, be it your kitchen, living room, or bathroom.
