Tall Swedish cabinet in soft grey, two-piece, early‑mid 19th century
-
Description
A substantial, two‑piece Swedish cabinet in a light grey wash with white highlights, dating to roughly 1820–1850. Each section opens with a pair of lockable doors; original locks are retained and two keys are included. The door panels are framed with raised, decorative moldings, and the upper case is crowned by a wide cornice that adds presence without excess. Vertical milled moldings run along the sides, topped by cast‑iron column capitals, underscoring the cabinet’s classical references. Interiors remain unpainted, offering simple, usable storage: two fixed shelves above and one below.
The cabinet stands on large, flattened‑sphere feet that give the piece a grounded stance. Constructed of Swedish pine, it shows the age and wear consistent with early‑19th‑century painted furniture, contributing to an authentic, lightly distressed surface rather than a modern finish. The overall effect suits bedrooms or guest rooms where both storage and a quietly historic, neutral palette are needed.
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! -
