About the Item

Portuguese, paper chest of drawers in vinhático. An imposing, high-quality piece, typical of 19th century Portuguese cabinetmaking. Made from vinhático wood, a noble essence of Madeiran flora, this chest of drawers has three large drawers and two drawers at the bottom, with richly carved gilded brass handles. The top is revealed by a folding lid that gives access to a compartmentalised interior with small niches, drawers and a central door in the shape of a temple, ideal for storing correspondence, documents or small valuables. The wedge-shaped feet and rigorous fittings reveal the mastery of the craftsmanship. The warm colour and texture of the vinhático give it a distinctive and elegant character, making this paper chest a functional, decorative and representative piece of traditional Portuguese furniture
