The front, which consists of three belt drawers above a pair of rectangular doors, has burl walnut inlay that gives the credenza a multi-hued and visually stunning, swirled appearance.

Quarter-round molding enhances the rich, brown rectangular top, extending beyond the main body, just above a repeating niche motif. The tall doors open to reveal a full-length shelf inside a dark chocolate colored interior. A pair of splayed front paw feet is accompanied by two bracket feet in the back, providing stability and aesthetic appeal beneath the low-profile apron with thin molding. The sides have deeply carved panels, comprised of a center oval surrounded by multiple layers of molding. Our 16th-century Renaissance credenza can be used in a variety of locations, ranging from a hallway to a dining or living room. See less
