Painted fir wardrobe, dated 1825 and originating from the Tyrolean Alps.
The structure is solid and symmetrical, featuring an upper cornice adorned with carved floral motifs, resting on red-painted bun feet.

The entire front surface is divided into vertical panels decorated with flower vases, arranged in a strict yet decorative composition on a light blue background bordered in coral red. Additional floral decorations are also present along the stiles and on the sides of the piece.

On the upper frieze, a white Gothic-script inscription on a red background displays a traditional proverb, which means:
"God lets the sun shine upon honest men."

At the center, elegantly painted in a calligraphic style, are likely the original owner's initials ("INNM") and the date "1825."
