Rated Excellent on Trustpilot.
Antique cabinet in neoclassical Directoire style from the late 18th century, made of walnut and oak, with dimensions 250 cm high, 190 cm wide and 60 cm deep.
Description from the seller
Beautiful and elegant cabinet.
Extremely well executed.
High-level cabinetmaking work.
The style is Directoire - transitional period from Louis XVI to Empire, around 1790.
'Only curved', the lower cabinet has outward projection only under a rise.
Beautifully worked legs on the corners - see detail photos.
Nice inlay on the doors - above a crossed flame and a bundle of arrows, here comes all the martial ornamentation toward the Empire.
Napoleon takes shape and the later wars.
The top has an open pediment - borrowed from classical Antiquity.
In that opening a decorative urn.
Beautiful and extensive interior with many drawers.
Three inner drawers have a special lining for (silver) cutlery.
The drawers are all nicely lined and still look like new, which is why I leave them as they are.
The buyer will certainly appreciate this. And if not, you can remove it easily.
Also see the special fittings, large round pulls made of cast brass - 10 cm in diameter.
All drawers run smoothly.
All drawers have the original locks and keys that work well.
No visible restorations.
In top condition.
The cabinet can be taken apart and shipped in pieces. You will have to assemble it yourself. That is not difficult.
Transport:
In the Netherlands, Belgium and Luxembourg, France and Spain we transport the furniture in packing blankets and bring it inside. In other countries it is shipped on a wooden pallet in sturdy cardboard and waterproof plastic up to the doorstep. For islands we charge a higher rate, delivery is to the door, please help as the driver is alone; the driver may not go inside or up the stairs. The carrier will contact you directly to arrange delivery. He has your phone number and email address.
>>> These transports usually do not have a track and trace system.
I will provide a dummy code for the Catawiki computer system.
You cannot track the transport.
Take photos of the packaging on receipt to rule out damage during transport.

Usually it takes three to seven days.
You approve and sign for good receipt with the driver.
Any damage must be reported directly in this form.
That is required for the insurance.
Damage that occurs afterwards is at your own risk.
An empty form means good receipt.
The carrier will call you to make an appointment for delivery.
You are free to arrange the transport yourself as well, please indicate that on your payment to Catawiki.
For non-European countries you must pay extra customs charges and there are additional clearance and administrative costs. For non-European countries I give one total amount for convenience but amounts may vary.
I am happy to inform you. Please contact me."} } { } 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
