Rustic Art Populaire Monoxylite Cupboard, Ardèche - 19th Century
Description
19th-century rustic, art populaire, monoxylite cupboard from Ardèche in France, made of solid wood and hand-carved. This organic travail populaire cabinet provides sufficient storage space with shelves to store and display various items, like books, art and other curiosities. Characteristic features of this wabi-sabi cabinet are the X-shaped cut-outs and the detailed hinges on the front of the door. The way this piece is closed is quite remarkable, as there is no doorknob or handle. It can only be opened and closed by moving a small wooden element over the doorframe.
With its remarkable patina, the design reminds us of the wabi-sabi philosophy which centres around the appreciation of the beauty of natural imperfection. The idea involves the understanding that everything ages with grace, and becomes more beautiful as it breaks, fades, or scars. It is the understanding that old and worn out things have their own elegant charm. The simplicity of the lines, combined with its remarkable woodworking and craftsmanship, will allow this French cabinet to bring a touch of authenticity to any home. Would fit well in a rustic minimal Axel Vervoordt inspired interior. This piece is in good original condition and reflects a warm and cosy feeling, ideal to give your interior extra character.
