inside on the left are 3 shelves, making for four
compartments, and 1 long shelf above the
clothing rod. The closet dates from
around 1880 and has been refinished in cream-white
over natural brown tones.
it now looks simply beautiful!

the cabinet is simply
slotted together, held in place without
screws and using
wedges.
it can be assembled in just 10 minutes.
no modern cabinet
can compete with that. The partition
with the shelves was added later,
but it, too, is simply
slotted into place.
i’ll include
assembly instructions.

i restored the cabinet in my
furniture restoration studio
and in the process left the
naturally aged wood visible in square
patterns.

dimensions are:
w 135 x d 55 x h 199 cm
shelf compartment width 39 x d 37 cm
width of the clothes rod compartment w 79 cm

condition:
the cabinet is antique and,
for a softwood cabinet, has many
natural age-related dents,
scratches, etc. Nevertheless, after
restoration, it is once again in good
condition, ready for use, and a
very attractive eye-catcher.

the cabinet will be disassembled
for transport. I will include
assembly instructions. See less
