An Italian Directoire credenza in walnut, with two paneled doors between canted corners, raised on turned toupie feet beneath a molded top. The design is all discipline: clean framing, quiet moldings, and beautifully figured walnut mellowed to an even, honeyed tone that does the decorative work by itself. Compact credenzas of this type are among the most adaptable of Italian case pieces, serving an entrance hall, a dining room, a bedroom, or a bathroom conversion, with generous shelf storage concealed behind the doors. The restrained neoclassical lines let it sit as comfortably in a contemporary interior as a traditional one. The doors close properly, with wear consistent with age and use.
