A monumental and deeply evocative antique American primitive corner cupboard, boasting an incredible, untouched painted finish. Standing nearly 7.5 feet tall, this piece commands a room with honest, rustic charm and significant scale.
According to the seller, this piece was purchased from Covesville Store Antiques in Virginia. It features a striking, classic two-tone color combination. The frame and trim wear a deep, antique "barn red" or earthy country red hue, contrasting with inset door panels painted in a dark, faded blue-grey.
The finish is a highly desirable "dry surface" patina. It is flaky, worn, and shows extensive chipping, crazing, and paint loss that reveals the aged wood beneath. It has not been sealed with modern clear coats.
Constructed by hand, likely in the 19th century, it is structurally solid and stable. The doors feature original-style wooden latch closures and simple pulls that still function properly. The interior is cavernous, fitted with fixed wooden shelves showing significant wear appropriate to its age.
This is a true statement piece, perfectly suited for an antique farmhouse kitchen, or as a textural anchor in a modern design.

The doors stay closed and latches work. The piece is defined by heavy wear consistent with age. The paint surface is "dry" and flaky, with extensive paint loss, chipping, scratches, and fading throughout the exterior and interior. The wood shows indentations, old repairs, and natural imperfections. The back planks are rough-sawn. less
