Large Heavily Carved Oak Armoire With Wrangel Family Crest, Sweden circa 1740-80

About the Item

Grandly standing over 8' tall, this stately hand-carved oak armoire makes a regal statement as it originally stood in the castle of the Swedish noble family of Carl Gustaf Wrangel. Please enlarge photos to appreciate the fine craftsmanship in the hand-carved details including figures both human and mythical, heads, vines, grapes and more. The Wrangel coat of arms crowns this masterpiece of the 18th century. Two large lower drawers function. Interior was designed for adjustable shelving but shelves are no longer present. Restored, strong and stable. This massive cabinet is built in 7 sections (crown, base, sides, back, doors, etc.) and can transport disassembled. Be aware the crown is extremely heavy (weighing approx.. 250+ lbs.) and may require a lift in addition to man power (minimum 4) to place on top of armoire. Shipping fees do not include installation. Any scratches, cracks, dings, or age related separation are reflective of age and do not detract from the beauty nor function of this impressive oak armoire. Please refer to professional photos for clear understanding of color, condition and details; photo lighting, individual monitor display and home lighting may all impact how item is viewed.
