AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Trentino three-drawer cabinet with walnut and burr oak veneer

• Description: Elegant fall-front (or bureau) piece of Trentino manufacture, attributable to the late 18th century / early 19th century (full Neoclassicism). The body is veneered in walnut with burr oak burl central reserves featuring warm blond veining. The front consists of three large lower drawers, topped by a geometric crown with a central drop-front and two staggered side drawers. Both the upper surface and the drawers, and the fall-front are adorned with refined inlays and contrasting geometric borders.

• Internal characteristics and details: The central drop-front, fitted with the original wrought-iron lock, opens to reveal an internal cabinet composed of four drawers arranged in two rows. The pulls on the main drawers are in darkened bronze, formed as circular rings on a shaped plate. Linear base with slightly molded plinth feet. All locks are provided with keys; note that the fall-front lock does not work, while all locks for the lower drawers are functional.

• Condition: Genuine piece in fairly good overall condition. Structurally solid, with a beautiful antique patina. Some signs of wear on the surface of the opened drop-front and small losses or cracks in the inlays and veneer, restorable and fully compatible with the object's age.

• Dimensions: 121 (L) x 56 (D) x 103 (H) cm

• Transportation: By prior arrangement and at an agreed cost, I can personally transport the piece in the North of Italy, Switzerland, and southern Germany.
