Antique folk art bridal wardrobe from 1816, from the Schwäbische Alb, southern Germany. This wardrobe exudes history and is characterized by the original painting with special stripe motifs, which are typical folk art expressions from the region. The whole piece has a weathered, rich patina as a result of two centuries of use. This significantly contributes to the warm and characteristic appearance of this piece of furniture. The wardrobe has been thoroughly checked and professionally restored, with attention to originality and character. The construction is solid, the painting is largely intact, and the patina has been preserved. The layout is still original, with one shelf and coat hooks. The wardrobe can be locked with the original working lock. Old, sporadically present woodworm traces have been checked and treated. Bridal wardrobes like this are rarely found. The patina and the way this wardrobe is painted make it an exclusive piece of furniture.
