This antique cabinet from Sweden, standing just shy of 7 feet in height, features an elegant swans-neck pediment style top, with clock set prominently within its center, atop a case that houses two pairs of reed front doors, divided by a mid-section that houses two small drawers set in horizontal fashion with a small workspace shelf in front of them (as the upper portion of the cabinet is set back from the lower), and rests upon a flat base. The doors all open to reveal shelving for plentiful storage within. This clock retains its original metal face, hands and movement, but is not in working condition.
