Antique Hand-Painted Original Farmhouse Cabinet, circa 1808. Dimensions: Height x Width x Depth 189 x 163 x 60 cm.
Exceptionally decorative and authentic hand-painted farmhouse cabinet, dating from around 1880, which impresses with its vibrant colors, balanced proportions, and remarkable originality. The front is adorned with finely executed floral motifs in harmonious colors against a dark background. The painting demonstrates a steady hand and a clear regional style, typical of high-quality rural furniture from the late 19th century. The chamfered corners are particularly beautiful, lending the cabinet a sense of lightness and clearly distinguishing it from simpler, strictly rectangular forms. The removable cornice is richly painted and emphasizes the cabinet's stately character without appearing overly ornate. The side panels are also decoratively designed, indicating that this cabinet was originally intended to stand freely in the room. The overall color scheme is harmonious, calm, and enhanced by an honest, naturally developed patina. Inside, the cabinet presents itself in a very beautiful, original condition. The wood is clean, well-maintained, and remarkably fragrant—a detail that connoisseurs particularly appreciate and which speaks to proper storage and sound wood. The interior layout is practical and typical of the period, ideally suited to modern living spaces.
This farmhouse cabinet is both traditional and surprisingly contemporary in its effect. It is perfectly suited as a distinctive piece in the living room, bedroom, or a stylishly furnished country-style room, bringing warmth, color, and history to the space. For its long-term preservation, gentle care is recommended: dust should only be removed with a soft, dry cloth. Direct sunlight and strongly fluctuating humidity should be avoided to protect the original paintwork. Harsh cleaning agents or care products should be deliberately avoided. Those wishing to delve deeper into painted farmhouse furniture will find in-depth information in regional folklore publications as well as in the collections and exhibition catalogs of relevant open-air museums in the Alpine region and southern Germany. This is a truly dreamlike specimen that you should treat yourself to.
