Display case - Wood, Glass

Old carved wooden display cabinet with glass. Elegant table display cabinet, crafted in reddish-brown wood, with a tall, narrow structure, richly decorated with carved and pierced elements. The upper body, of a parallelepiped shape, has four glazed faces, allowing a full view of the interior. The top is likewise closed by a glass panel, providing good light entry and enhancing the displayed objects. The frames consist of vertically molded uprights, preserving a dark and irregular patina resulting from age and use. The upper end is finished with a succession of carved and pierced latticework, decorated with scrolls, vegetal motifs, and stylized shapes. In the four corners appear small carved pinnacles, some fashioned as zoomorphic or anthropomorphic figures, giving the piece an exotic and particularly expressive artisanal character. The cabinet rests on an independent, detachable base of square shape, decorated with a carved frieze of stylized leaves and a small central motif. The lower skirt presents wavy cutouts, extending into a central reinforced support by pierced and carved elements inspired by vegetal motifs. The pedestal ends in a tripartite base, formed by three curved arms, finished with bulky cylindrical terminals incised with floral decoration. This structure provides stability to the piece and reinforces its sculptural profile. The cabinet can be separated from the pedestal, facilitating transport and allowing observation of the base’s interior construction. This is a decorative piece with strong presence, suitable for displaying jewelry, small collectible objects, sacred art, porcelain, miniatures, or other precious items. Wear is consistent with age.
