Product description
Beautiful and stylish Zeeland cabinet with four doors.
Circa 1650.
At this time, Zeeland, along with the rest of Holland, was the richest country in the world thanks to the shipping and trade it generated. Because the Roman Catholic Church no longer held power, and the church and king were no longer the dominant power, but the middle class held the reins, money was better distributed so the entire country could benefit – this system allowed the Netherlands to become so wealthy.

This richness is fully reflected in this piece of furniture.
A rich and exceptionally beautiful cabinet made entirely in the Zeeland tradition.
The proportions are characteristic, wider than it is tall.
The narrow and wide doors at the top are also typically Zeeland.
Beautiful cornice panels with beautiful Renaissance miters—with inlaid black ebony—are featured in the doors. In the hood below the cornice, a quarter-round profile with teardrop-shaped figures. This is a typical feature of the Italian Renaissance, which became popular in Holland and Zeeland in the 17th century. >>> ... >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>.
