AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Classic Dutch Cushioned Cabinet. With deep large cushions, the Dutch call them cushions, but originally they were intended as cut gemstones with beveled facets. In English they are called diamonds indeed. In excellent condition. Under a wide drawer. It glides very easily. Inside, two shelves. Original lock - see close-up photos - and original hand-forged key. Beautiful color in the wood. A beautiful and engaging contrast between the light warm tones of oak and rosewood and the black ebony. The cabinet stands on two large blackened oak ball feet. Offers below the asking price will not be honored. Prices are very reasonable, which is why I prefer to sell to people who appreciate it. I ship only to EU countries. Buyers from other countries must arrange their own shipping. You will receive the shipping details from me. This can be with carriers such as UPS, GLS, FedEx, and DHL. You will receive a label from your carrier and email it to me. I can offer advice.
