About the Item
A 18th century "Hamburg Schapp". Walnut veneered on oak.
In the second half of the 18th century, the first "Schapp" were created in northern Germany for the entryways of wealthy merchants and burghers. The new design medium of the so-called "cushions", which originated in Holland, as panels on doors, carcase sides and drawer fronts, became established in the Hanseatic area and then also in the entire German territory. The Schapp gained increasing popularity in the late 17th or early 18th century and took the place of the bridal chest. The Hamburg Schapp model became particularly well known, but also those from Lübeck and Danzig. For the first time, a local type of cabinet was also adopted in other regions while retaining its name.
Dismountable two-door corpus. At the front, a triple-cranked, profiled plinth box on ball feet with a large drawer divided by a central risalit and 2 indicated false drawers. The central section is divided by three Corinthian pilasters with carved capitals ending below the cornice. Two doors with longitudinal oval "cushion" panels with multiple mouldings and tapered edges. Protruding moulded cornice. Possibly missing carved centre cartouche.
"Cushion" panels also on the sides of the carcase.
Original lock and key. Newer fittings.
Added shelf inside. By arrangement, the wardrobe can be fitted with additional shelves, a clothes rail or a divided set consisting of shelves and clothes rail, according to your wishes.
Old worming present (see pictures), but nothing active.
