made of natural soft spruce wood with a
hydrangea-blue interior and
blue accents on the exterior, dating from around 1880–1890,
in a rustic country house style.

the cabinet consists of an upper and
lower section and was already
blue on the inside; i simply
refreshed the paint and added accents to the exterior.
the panes in the upper doors
are still the original old cast
glass with the typical irregularities
and inclusions.

the left doors are hung using old
metal hooks into the metal eyelets on the
shelves and closed that way.
the right doors have locks that
still work.

at f\.lagerhaus, cabinets like this
cost around 900 to 1,000 €, but this
one here is a genuine antique!

overall dimensions:
w 110 x d 52 x h 210 cm
height of upper section = 113 cm
height of lower section = 97 cm

condition:
the cabinet is in very good
condition, despite all the age-related
wear and tear on the rustic softwood.
but that’s exactly what gives it
its charm.

in the pictures, the cabinet
looks a little “crooked,” but it isn’t!
it was my mistake—i didn’t
hold the camera quite right. See less
