Louis XVI Style Demi Lune Buffet with Original Marble and Bronze Hardware

This antique Louis XVI style demi-lune server is made of mixed woods, veneers, bronze and copper ormolu. The marble top that rests on it is original to the piece. However, it has been repaired at some point in its history. The interior of this buffet had has mirrors and lighting added at one point. This piece dates back to the early 1800's from what we can tell. The ormolu is very finely chased. Whether larger or smaller in mass, the bronze retains a high degree of intricate detail. From the tiny veins in the leaves and flowers, to the miniscule 3 ornamental moldings, the ciselure was extraordinary. There are many motifs, and all are Louis XVI style.
