Swedish 18th Century Baroque Vitrine

Made in Sweden in the eighteenth century, this Baroque vitrine is a glazed display cabinet. The Baroque style, with its bold forms and shaped lines, is seen in the cabinet's construction, while the glazed doors allow the contents to be displayed, suiting the vitrine to the presentation of china, glass, or decorative objects. The timber or painted surface carries the patina associated with age. As a vitrine, the piece combines enclosed, glazed storage with display, suited to a dining room, sitting room, or hall. Its eighteenth-century date and Baroque form give it strong period character. Suited to both period and plainer modern interiors, the vitrine serves as both a functional and a decorative piece. As an eighteenth-century Swedish Baroque vitrine, it offers glazed display storage together with the bold, shaped character of Baroque case furniture, working as a cabinet for the display of a collection and as a decorative piece in its own right.

This is an antique and having been around for a long time, it will show signs of wear. Antique pieces have very much sought-after character and associated flaws. Please review photos for condition & contact us with questions!
