Small 17th Century Italian Renaissance Credenza

About the Item

Small 17th Century Italian Renaissance Credenza. Made of Circassian Walnut with carved heads as handles to the single drawer over two paneled doors with bronze hardware and heavily carved molded decoration throughout. Retaining old green painted finish. Made in Tuscany circa 1680. 32.5" H 32" W 18" D A rare and characterful small-scale credenza from the Italian Renaissance period, handcrafted in Tuscany circa 1680. This early cabinet is constructed from Circassian walnut and features a deeply molded base and cornice, enriched with hand-carved decorative detailing throughout. The upper frieze drawer is flanked by expressive carved heads- an exceptional sculptural feature- above two paneled doors, each incised with stylized classical motifs. Retaining hand-forged bronze escutcheon and round pulls, the piece opens to reveal a single shelved interior. The surface is finished in a beautifully distressed green paint, now softened by time to reveal underlying tones and patina. Richly textured and architecturally bold, this piece exemplifies the refined rusticity and artisanal strength of 17th-century Tuscan joinery. A soulful cabinet of sculptural presence and historic depth, ideal as a statement console, side cabinet, or collector's accent!
