Impressive 19th-Century Display Cabinet in Richly Carved Wood — A Statement Piece of Architectural Character An imposing 19th-century display cabinet distinguished by its rich sculptural decoration and monumental proportions. Measuring 265 cm in height and 223 cm in width, this piece stands out for its strong architectural composition and elaborately worked decorative elements. The two large glazed doors are framed by carved uprights featuring female figures, masks and decorative motifs that emphasise the cabinet’s vertical lines. The particularly striking crest features a carved composition with winged figures and a central cartouche, flanked by eagles at either end. The lower section echoes the decorative language of the upper structure through scrollwork, relief carving and a shaped base, balancing the visual lightness of the glazed surfaces with the substance of the carved wood. The interior, fitted with two shelves, provides generous display space for ceramics, porcelain, silverware or collectable objects. The glazed doors showcase the contents while allowing the cabinet’s construction to remain visible. A piece of strong character, well suited to a grand drawing room, library or formal entrance hall. Its rich carving also makes it particularly appealing to collectors, antique dealers and interior designers working with historic residences.

Small losses and localised irregularities are present, as shown in the detailed photographs, and form part of the cabinet’s historic character. The cabinet may have undergone maintenance or restoration over the years. Please examine all photographs carefully, including the close-up images, as they form an integral part of the description. The staged interior images are for illustrative purposes. Collection Arrangements The cabinet is available exclusively for collection in Follina (Treviso, Italy), by appointment. The seller does not offer shipping. 1. Collection in person by the buyer: dismantling, packing, handling, loading and transport must be arranged and paid for entirely by the buyer. 2. Collection by a carrier appointed by the buyer: all arrangements, dismantling, packing, handling, loading, transport and any insurance must be organised and paid for entirely by the buyer. Given the cabinet’s dimensions and the delicate nature of its carved elements and glazed surfaces, collection requires suitable personnel, equipment and a vehicle of appropriate size. Any additional costs relating to special transport, handling services, customs duties, import taxes, customs clearance or local charges remain entirely the buyer’s responsibility.
