Description from the seller
Uncleaned with genuine patina Antique Art Nouveau / Jugendstil Miniature Fretwork Wall Cabinet – Wood Lace – c. 1900
An exquisite turn-of-the-century miniature hanging wall or table cabinet (circa 1900–1910) celebrating the height of the Art Nouveau and Secessionist movements.
This piece is a masterclass in antique fretwork (scroll-saw) craftsmanship, displaying incredibly intricate, organic flowing lines across the double front doors, side multi-tier display shelves, and the upper gallery crest. Constructed from dark-stained hardwood and fitted with its original brass butterfly hinges, it makes an exceptional curio display or collector’s cabinet.
Condition Note: A beautiful restoration opportunity. True to its age and the fragility of "wood lace," the cabinet shows structural breaks in 2 places (most notably a split across the delicate top gallery crest rail and a minor split on the side frame framework). It remains stable for display and can be easily glued/restored by an enthusiast.
Period: Circa 1900-1910
Material: Hardwood & Brass
Condition: Antique with wear; includes two fine structural wood breaks (clearly documented in detail photos). Sold as-is with a magnificent natural patina.
Dimensions: 49 cm x 57 cm x 18 cm
