19th-Century French Farmhouse Petrin / Dough Box Table

£645.00

A beautiful and characterful 19th century antique French Petrin/ Dough Box originally used in traditional French country homes for preparing and storing bread dough before baking.

Crafted from warm, timeworn timber, this lovely piece has all the charm you would hope to find in an authentic French farmhouse antique. The rich patina, natural markings, old knots and gentle wear have developed over many years, giving it a wonderfully individual appearance that simply cannot be replicated in a new piece.

The raised leg design and shaped apron give it an elegant silhouette, while the substantial box-style top makes it a wonderfully versatile piece for today’s home. Style it at the end of a bed, use it as an unusual console or occasional table, or place it in a hallway or living room filled with books, flowers, lamps and favourite collected pieces.

A fabulous piece of French provincial history, perfect for a rustic, country, brocante or relaxed contemporary interior.
