Antique French Oak Bonnetière / Linen Cupboard, 1800–1850

Antique French oak bonnetière dating from the first half of the 19th century. This narrow, single-door cupboard was traditionally used for storing linen and headwear.

The cabinet has a moulded cornice, panelled sides and a full-height panelled door with a working lock and key. The oak has a warm brown colour, with visible grain and natural variations in tone.

Inside, three wooden shelves divide the cupboard into four storage compartments. Patterned paper lines the interior back panels and the bottom compartment.

Suitable for storing linen, folded clothing or kitchenware, its narrow proportions make it practical for rooms with limited floor space.

The cupboard is in very good antique condition, with minor signs of age and use.
