Louis XV Single-Door Armoire – Ivory Lacquer & Gold Leaf Floral Hand-Painted
A stately Louis XV single-door armoire in ivory lacquer, adorned with hand-painted florals and lavish gold-leaf carved scrollwork — a Brass & Wood masterpiece.
Design Inspiration
Rooted in the opulence of 18th-century French Rococo, this single-door armoire channels the spirit of Louis XV's Versailles apartments. Its creamy ivory ground becomes a canvas for cascading hand-painted rose bouquets, delicate ribbon swags, and sinuous gilt scrollwork that draws the eye from the ornate crested cornice down to the cabriole feet.
Materials & Finish
Crafted entirely from solid hardwood, every surface is sealed in a smooth ivory lacquer finish before master painters apply each floral motif freehand. Raised carved details — acanthus leaves, shell cartouches, and foliate scrolls — are burnished with genuine gold leaf, creating depth and luminosity that catches the light from every angle.
Crowning Glory
The pierced gilt cresting rail that tops the armoire is a tour de force of the carver's art: interlaced foliage and floral finials rise dramatically against the cornice, framing the piece with unmistakable Rococo grandeur.
Craftsmanship at Brass & Wood
Every armoire is handcrafted in the Brass & Wood atelier in Egypt by artisans trained in classical European joinery and decorative painting. Mortise-and-tenon joinery ensures structural integrity, while the hand-applied gold leaf and multi-stage lacquer finish guarantee a heirloom-quality piece destined to anchor a bedroom or dressing room for generations.
