Early Pine Marriage Cupboard in Original Paint
Ref: 4966
When it came in chocolate brown all over, we have dry scraped this cupboard to it’s original painted decoration, the form is Baroque and a form seen from the end of the 17th century, but carried on for at least a century, we are giving it an approximate date of 1740-60 and it is probably German.
It is shelved to interior (removable) and has original functioning lock.
Probably made originally for a marriage cupboard. Nice to think we have preserved it, it was overpainted in the 19th century to suit current trends and could easily have been sent to the stripping tank in the 1970s and 90s!
Northern Europe c.1740-80
H: 176cm (69.3in)
