About the Item

19th-century Danish oak display cabinet or vitrine with a newer professionally applied layered black painted exterior finish, lightly distressed to reveal natural wood beneath and adding depth of character. Pane glass upper doors allow for attractive display, while the interior is painted a contrasting pale blue with slight gray/seafoam undertones. The cabinet features a gracefully curved crown with carved accents, a scalloped skirt, and carved cabriole feet. The upper glass doors secure with an old lock and key. The lower section contains three drawers: the left and right drawers open with brass pulls, while the larger central drawer opens with a skeleton key used as a pull only. Decorative carving continues along the skirt, contributing to the romantic Rococo influence seen throughout the piece. Restored, strong, stable, and ready for use, this cabinet offers both display and storage in an elegant Danish form. Typical age-related scratches, nicks, dings, signs of wear do not impact the function nor beauty of this lovely display cabinet that may also be used as a striking bookcase. Please refer to professional photos for clear understanding of color, condition, and details; photo lighting, individual monitor display and home lighting all impact how item is viewed.
