Cupboard - Utrecht Bar Cabinet - oak wood

Utrecht bar cabinet. Beautiful Utrecht bar cabinet. Dutch Renaissance. 1630 – 1670. The arches in the doors are derived from triumphal arches as they occur in classical architecture. Magnificent panels of quarter-sawn oak. The sides are also adorned with arches. Trade had made the Dutch population among the wealthiest in the world during this period. Because we were a republic, most of the money did not go to the church or the king, but to entrepreneurs. They displayed their wealth in their houses and interiors. As a result, they gave others better-paid work. This was a revolutionary economic circumstance. The whole country became rich and powerful, instead of just a small elite. This was the basis on which the Netherlands became economically so successful. Those arches were then the triumphal arches of proud citizens. And consciously intended as a symbol. Beautiful and balanced distribution of light oak and black ebony. See also the beautiful panels on the sides. With refined profiling. A wide drawer at the bottom. The cabinet sits on the original blackened feet (ball feet). Inside a clean and beautiful interior with shelves and a drawer. Nice compact size: 200 cm high. The top section can be removed for transport. Bids under the limit will not be honored. Prices are very reasonable; therefore I prefer to sell to people who appreciate it.
