Description from the seller

An early 20th-century ribalta in the “Vecchia Cerea” style, belonging to the tradition of the first decades of the century, and a typical example of the refined Venetian artisanal craft, of which it preserves intact the charm and the authenticity of the time, with its flowing lines and decorative inlays. The term “Vecchia Cerea” identifies the production of high‑quality handcrafted furniture made in the Cerea area, in the province of Verona, known since the 19th century for its tradition in woodworking. This style is distinguished by the elegance of the forms and the care of the details, such as the shaped feet and the finely inlaid profiles. Inside the ribalta there are compartments and small drawers ideal for documents or precious objects, while the two large drawers underneath provide additional storage space.

Pickup and/or shipping at the buyer’s expense:
The piece is located at Illasi in the province of Verona - 37031 - and given its dimensions and weight it is easily transportable even by car with or without packaging.
To further facilitate the buyer in organizing shipment via courier, I provide the address of a company capable of handling the entire procedure: packing, shipping, etc... contact: Mail Boxes Etc. Centro MBE 0150 - via Colonnello Galiano, 51 - 37138 Verona - Tel. 0458198522
