Seclin dresser in grey oak

Small dresser in the style of louis XVI called seclin. The story is pretty: a certain lady marie d'o or ogni according to historical accounts, noble lady of the region, enamored of decoration and crafts launched a competition with the craftsmen of the region to whom she often visited to keep abreast of the novelties produced. She asked them to offer her furniture that would look raw, rustic, forest and of soothed color to suit her interior, which she loved close to nature. A certain lebret or lebreton, carpenter won his favor by offering him a raw wood chest treated with potash; which gives it its greyish appearance by bringing the tannin up from the wood. Seclin's so-called dresser was born. Massive oak. Metal handle. Natural finish. Beautiful grey-brown color. Very good state of use. Very clean.
