Antique early 18th Century German Baroque Stripped Oak Two-Door Wardrobe Cabinet

About the Item

This antique oak cabinet was crafted in the early 20th century in the German state of North Rhine-Westphalia around 1720. The cabinet was entirely built from the finest quality European summer oak. It features two doors and is richly adorned with molding in geometric patterns. The wooden molding was attached to the oanels by the use of pegs. The doors showcase a floral maple inlay. They retain their original hinges, while the lock has been replaced. Inside, on the right-hand side, there are two and a half fixed shelves, and on the left-hand side, there is a hanging section. This cabinet was made from the most exquisite wood available at the time, beautiful European summer oak, displaying a distinctive flame pattern. Due to its age, the wood has acquired a rich, dark patina. The cabinet has been recently cleaned. Like many German oak cabinets from this period, it was originally painted with a faux wood grain finish. This was done to avoid taxes levied on luxury goods found in people's homes. The oak cabinet was assessed at a high value, and to evade the tax, many cabinets were overpainted. This cabinet has been thoroughly cleaned, revealing its original dark oak color. The feet and some sections of the molding have been replaced in our workshop. We used wood with a similar age, minimizing any noticeable color difference. The cabinet is entirely clean, without any defects, and ready for use.
