About the Item
This original painted armoire or "Shrunk" has beautiful carving and painted details, including castle, church, and houses upon a hill.
The original painted finish is primarily a teal blue, with burgundy and cream/butter yellow accents. The canted sides, and curved bonnet or crown are also beautifully embellished with decorative painting and carving.
Notice the original hardware including the hinges, lock, knobs, key and keyhole cover.
The interior is painted a complimentary teal blue and burgundy, but appears to be a newer finish. Shelves are removeable. Notice 4 standard shelves, with curves along bottom shelf, and uppermost 5th shelf is small at 1/3 size in depth.
