These 1920 French Louis XV style demi-lune side cabinets form a matching pair finished in warm brown and cream tones. Each piece presents a book-matched burr walnut veneer top with a moulded pie crust fore-edge above two curved doors displaying intricate floral scrollwork and classical urn marquetry inlays. The structure includes foliate carved aprons and rests on three elegant scrolling cabriole legs painted in a pale cream shade, complete with small round dark hardware knobs on the doors. Measuring 84 cm high, 57 cm wide, and 32 cm deep, each cabinet offers compact proportions suited for smaller spaces. They fit well in a hallway beside the front door or in a living room as functional accent pieces for storage and display.

A demi-lune cabinet is a semi-circular piece of furniture designed to sit flush against a wall, developed in 18th-century Europe to optimise floor space while providing storage and decorative surface area.

These pieces typically feature fine wood veneers such as burr walnut, rosewood, or mahogany, decorated with inlaid wood motifs and supported by carved, painted, or gilded wooden legs.

Authentic period examples display hand-cut wood veneers, traditional joinery techniques such as mortise and tenon joints, natural patination across painted finishes, and slight irregularities in the floral or urn inlays.

Position a pair symmetrically on either side of a doorway, bed, or fireplace, or place a single unit in an entryway beneath a wall mirror to create a focal point.

Position the furniture away from direct sunlight and radiators to prevent wood movement and veneer lifting, dust regularly with a clean microfibre cloth, and apply a high-grade beeswax polish periodically.
