Louis XV Ivory & Gold Leaf Abaya Armoire – Hand-Painted Rococo Single Door

Rococo Grandeur Reborn

Inspired by the opulent courts of eighteenth-century France, this Louis XV single-door armoire captures the essence of Rococo elegance. Its gently arched bonnet, cabriole legs finished in gold leaf, and sinuous carved apron echo the playful asymmetry that defined an era. Brass & Wood reimagines this timeless silhouette for the modern luxury home — and for the graceful display of abayas and evening robes.

Materials & Finish

The carcase is built from kiln-dried solid hardwood, then enveloped in a hand-applied ivory lacquer that lends warmth without weight. Every scroll, floral garland, and acanthus motif is first carved in relief, then gilded with genuine gold leaf by master craftsmen. The central door panel showcases a bespoke hand-painted bouquet, surrounded by delicate gold vine trails — no two pieces are identical.

Diamond-Tufted Interior

Open the door to reveal a sumptuously tufted velvet interior in soft champagne, providing a gentle, snag-free backdrop for hanging abayas, caftans, and evening wear. A single hanging rail and a lower shelf offer versatile, practical storage within this work of art.

Brass & Wood Craftsmanship

Every armoire is handcrafted in our Cairo atelier, where old-world European joinery techniques meet contemporary Egyptian artisanship. Each piece passes through multiple quality stages — from wood selection to final lacquer buffing — ensuring heirloom-quality furniture that carries a story across generations.
