Its simple rectangular form is softened by paneled double doors, molded edges and lightly chamfered front corners with restrained carved detailing. The pine has been stripped back to a warm, pale finish that reveals the lively grain, knots, old nail heads and traces of age throughout. Rather lightweight in construction, it has the simple, practical quality of country furniture, which contributes to its relaxed and unpretentious charm. The double doors open to a generous interior with a single full-width shelf. The original lock is functional, although the key operates in reverse. There are age-related cracks to the side panels, together with surface marks and wear consistent with long use. \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eIts appeal lies in the honesty and simplicity of the construction, with the pale pine, visible grain and gently worn surface giving it the relaxed character of French country furniture. The broad top offers useful display space for ceramics, lamps or books, while the interior provides practical concealed storage. In a kitchen, pantry or mudroom, it would bring warmth and texture along with generous storage, while the simple form and irregularities of the wood contribute to its relaxed country charm. \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCondition and patina consistent with age.\u003cbr\u003eApprox. overall 33½\" high x 49¼\" wide x 19¼\" deep \u003cbr\u003eApprox. overall 85cm high x 125cm wide x 49cm deep\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Chez Pluie","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54501454545234,"sku":"25676","price":3495.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1166\/6698\/files\/DSC05745_a860dde5-3688-438e-bbfd-29411e5ad0d2.jpg?v=1788344630","url":"https:\/\/www.chezpluie.com\/products\/early-20th-century-french-country-pine-buffet-331-2-x-491-4","provider":"Chez Pluie","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
