About the Item

An impressive, late 18th century Finnish folk art cupboard, in full original condition featuring very heavy patina and signs of a long life. Amazingly the cupboard still retains the original lock and key mechanism. As you can see the item features some folk art carvings on the front, and most likely has at some point featured some paintings as well. Inside the cupboard holds two shelves. The item is of Finnish origin. This item will require an export permission. The process usually takes about 2 weeks, so all in all, shipping and handling will take up to 3-4 weeks.
