Old oak butcher's block with marble top and central section co

Very beautiful antique butcher's cabinet in oak, probably dating from the first half of the 20th century. This piece of furniture stands out for its beautiful solid wood construction, its warm blonde patina, and its compartmentalised top surface incorporating several marble slabs. The central part of the top is sliding, a rare and particularly functional detail that reflects its original professional use. The front is equipped with two storage drawers, an elegant brass rail, and a shaped cut-out beneath the drawers. The cabinet rests on sturdy legs with wheels, making it easy to move. A low shelf provides additional storage space. Originally likely used in a butcher's shop, delicatessen, or food trade, this piece can today be charmingly repurposed as a kitchen sideboard, small island, preparation unit, display cabinet, bar, or occasional furniture in a country house, vintage kitchen, or characterful interior. A very beautiful decorative piece, both authentic, practical, and unique, with all the charm of old professional furniture. In generally good used condition. Signs of age, marks, scratches, wear, and visible patina, particularly on the wood and marble slabs. These elements are consistent with its previous use and contribute to its authenticity. The central part of the top slides.
