About the Item
Exceptional, rare empire nutwood display cabinet or vitrine from the mid 19th century in North Germany - the "second empire" period. As part of the inventory of a stately mansion, this extraordinary display cabinet was elaborately handcrafted around 1850 and impresses with an absolute artfully design. This masterpiece of an late empire vitrine convinces with fantastic shaped lines, veneered in finest nutwood. Visible from three glassed sides, the fixed shelves offer a lot of space on four levels, perfect to present your valuable collectibles, dishes or other items . A real great architectural highlight is the triangular gable - the so-called "Schinkel roof" (named after the german architect Karl Friedrich Schinkel, who designed a lot of buildings between 1800 - 1840 especially in the greater Berlin area) which additionally hides an unvisible, secret drawer (see pciture #6 & #7). Amazing looking mystical sea creatures with gilt accents decorate each wonderful slanted top of the front corners. Beautiful ebonized full columns with gold leaf plated ends confer this one of a kind empire vitrine/ display cabinet a very luxurious charm and finalizes the unique appearance. Another large lockable drawer in the base, ebonized details and lovely brass applications complete the incredible look of this remarkable 19th century Empire display cabinet.
