A Swedish Gustavian period two-part wooden cabinet from the early 19th century, with diamond motifs, four doors, carved open shelf and distressed patina. This wooden cabinet features a beveled and molded cornice sitting above two doors adorned with recessed panels accented with reeded patterns and diamond motifs. These upper doors open to reveal a yellow painted interior made of inner shelves including one to display spoons. The central section presents an open shelf with scalloped accents. The bottom part, of deeper proportions, features two additional doors opening to inner shelves as well. Their décor echoes the doors at the top. The ensemble is raised on carved bracket feet. The cabinet is painted in a soft color with nice distressing typical of the Swedish taste for light palettes aiming at brightening the rooms during the long and dark Scandinavian winters.
