AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
17th-century Zeeland Cushion Cabinet.
Beautiful deep cushions.
The cushions of these cabinets are based on faceted gemstones.
This cabinet has typical Zeeland proportions: low and wide.
Almost square.
The piece of furniture exudes the wealth of the people of Zeeland at that time. Along with the other six provinces, it was among the richest countries in the world when this cabinet was made.
Circa 1660.
This wealth is also reflected in the abundance of black ebony.
A beautiful, harmonious balance between blond oak and black ebony.
The doors are very heavy, also for prestige; the left is 6 cm thick and the right 7 cm.
At the top of the hood is a wide drawer spanning the full width.
Below the doors is another wide drawer.
Beautiful, well-carved lion heads with copper rings.
The lion also appears in the Zeeland coat of arms.
No key.
