Product description
This is a particularly beautiful Dutch cabinet in a high-quality design. Refined carved vines flanking the doors. The doors are very solid and heavily made. They are 7 to 8 cm. thick and weigh 40 to 50 kg each and hinge smoothly in their forged brass hinges. Pivots are a kind of hinge that is not noticeable. They have been used since the 16th century. The wood in the doors is processed in such a way that the direction of the grain creates a trompe-loeil effect of deep cushions. Very nicely done. The style is Baroque but Dutch Baroque, unlike in France or Germany, for example, not exuberant but rather modest. You could almost call it sobre. Due to the influence of Calvinism. This creates a powerful image. Beautiful profiles and calm, balanced proportions. Beautiful and well-finished oak interior. The top shelf has a wide drawer with a nutwood front. A wide drawer under the doors, see photos. Heavy blackened ball feet (original) match this style. The lock works and the key is original. }}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}} This is a particularly fine Dutch cabinet of high quality design. Delicately carved vines flank the doors. The doors are very solid and heavy duty. They are 7 to 8 cm thick, weigh 40 to 50 kg each and hinge smoothly in their forged brass hinges. Spears are a type of hinge that is unobtrusive. They have been used since the 16th century. The wood in the doors is worked so that the grain direction creates a trompe-l'oeil effect of deep cushions. Very nicely done. The style is baroque, but Dutch baroque, unlike, say, France or Germany, not exuberant but rather subdued. You could almost call it austere. Because of the influence of Calvinism. This makes for a powerful image. Beautiful profiles and calm, balanced proportions. Beautiful and well finished oak interior. The top shelf has a wide drawer with a walnut front. A wide drawer under the doors, see photos. Heavy, black ball legs (original) match this style. The lock works and the key is original.
