European two-part vitrine cabinet with fine carvings, circa 1790

Offered by: Jacqueline Adams Antiques

Description
An elegant European two-part vitrine cabinet dating to circa 1790, distinguished by its refined proportions and finely carved architectural details. The upper section features two glazed doors fitted with geometric leaded panes, opening to adjustable interior shelving ideal for the display of porcelain, books, or decorative objects. The cabinet is crowned by a boldly carved cornice with classical dentil-style ornament, lending strong architectural presence.

The lower section is fitted with a slanted fall-front writing surface above a series of drawers, each adorned with period-appropriate metal pulls and escutcheons. The surfaces retain a painted finish with a softly aged, time-worn patina that enhances the cabinet’s character and authenticity. Subtle carved moldings frame the panels throughout, reflecting late 18th-century craftsmanship.

Both decorative and functional, this vitrine works equally well as a display cabinet, secretary, or storage piece. A versatile and historically grounded furnishing suitable for refined interiors, from traditional to curated eclectic spaces.

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!
