Solid wood cabinet in antique Impero style, dating from 1850–1900, of Italian origin, with two doors and a large lower drawer, dimensions about 236 cm high, 157 cm wide and 50 cm deep, in good condition with age-related signs.
Description from the seller
Elegant antique two-door wardrobe dating from the 19th century, characterized by sober, monumental architectural shapes reminiscent of Empire/Biedermeier taste.
The piece features a beautiful walnut surface and walnut veneer, particularly decorative in the large molded upper cornice and the lower plinth, where the natural grain of the wood creates a notable ornamental effect.
The front is divided by two large paneled doors, framed by vertical stiles. At the bottom there is a wide pull-out drawer, practically hidden in the plinth when closed.
The interior preserves the traditional wooden construction, with a back made from boards and paneling. There is a shelf and a clothes rail. The hardware and locking systems are visible in the photographs and contribute to the piece's historical character.
The construction of the back, unfinished interiors, and traces of workmanship are consistent with an antique piece.
The wardrobe is in overall good condition for its age, with patina and normal signs of use. There are scratches, small abrasions, finishing irregularities, traces of past interventions and wear, particularly visible on the back and in non-visible parts. The interior of the lower drawer features a padded lining, presumably added later.
The photographs show in detail the conservation status and are an integral part of the description.
Dimensions (approx.):
Height 236 cm
Depth 50 cm
Width 157 cm
