Description:
Two-door wardrobe, from the Bavarian Alps, painted in an intense blue color.
On the front, four framed panels contain floral decorations with sunflowers. It is very rare to find decorations with this type of flower in Alpine furniture.
On the entire surface of the furniture there are other floral decorations and orange-red panels, which create a pleasant chromatic contrast with the background blue, giving the whole elegance, color and warmth.
Large drawer in the lower part of the furniture.
Of particular interest are the original and functional hardware, including the fine door hinges, hand-forged and applied externally, as an additional decoration to a piece of furniture with a great scenic effect.
This wardrobe has never been restored but is in excellent condition. The new owners will be able to decide what work to do and the interior layout based on their preferences and intended use.
