DESCRIPTION:  A Spanish carved oak buffet a deux corps (buffet or hutch with the top cabinet having a shallower depth than the bottom), 19th C.  The carved cavetto molding crowns double lattice work cupboard doors with hand forged iron hinges which open to reveal two interior shelves.  These are set on a base with a frieze drawer over double cupboard doors, also with iron hinges, each carved with a six point flower set within a circle.  Flanking the doors are beautifully carved sunburst side panels, with the whole resting on square feet joined by a diamond carved skirt. CONDITION: This is a sturdy piece. Some mild chip and scuff wear are noted intermittently, consistent with age and use.  A superb example from a New Orleans estate.  DIMENSIONS:  78.25" high (almost 2 meters) x  46.25" wide (1.17 m) x 17.25" deep (43.8 cm).  <div id='rater_target1302577'></div>
