Superb and rare Dutch display cabinet from the late 18th/early 19th century, inlaid with light woods such as boxwood and satinwood on a walnut ground. A superb example of Dutch craftsmanship. This beautiful display cabinet with canted corners features two solid doors in the lower section and two glazed doors in the upper section, concealing three shelves. It is unusual to find cabinets with doors in the lower section, which could be practical for storing dishes or other items. The lower section is decorated with bouquets of flowers, censers, and numerous inlaid wooden flowers. The upper section also features numerous flowers and a central medallion depicting a man. It rests on claw feet. The keyhole escutcheons are exquisite, adorned with figures. The cabinet has been fully polished with a French polish in our workshops. In perfect condition with a superb patina. Superb quality.
