Painted Folk Art Bridal Cabinet 1846

Exceptional pine bridal wardrobe dating from 1846. This wardrobe is simply designed but beautifully painted in ochre-brown tones with floral and religious decorations. The panels are painted with amphorae with flowers and the love heart. Above the door is the wedding date of the previous owner. This piece is still in neat condition for its age, although some old woodworm and signs of use can be seen, which are to be expected with a piece of furniture of this age. Of course, the entire wardrobe has been carefully checked and treated with an eye for the characteristic appearance that this piece of furniture should have. The wardrobe has a well-functioning lock with key and is equipped with a rod on the inside. In the past, it was customary to give bridal furniture like this as a gift to the couple at a wedding. These pieces of furniture were then placed on the farm in a show room that was only rarely used for important visitors or special occasions. A beautiful and decorative piece of history. This piece comes from South-East Germany (Oberpfalz).
