Description:
Antique Tyrolean wardrobe in forest green color, with a single door.
On the door, two framed octagonal panels in red color contain floral decorations. The same decorations are replicated below the door, in a panel identical to the previous two, but rectangular in shape. A red band wraps around the entire piece of furniture, just below the upper cornice, and contains the date and initials of the first client.
On the sides and chamfers, the elegant alternation of red and green colors is repeated.
The entire lower part, on the front and sides, is devoid of frames and characterized by a graceful silhouette with fretwork, called "fratinatura", which gives lightness to the whole.
Of particular interest are the hinges that support the door, external and made of wrought iron. A further decorative as well as functional element.
Partially restored furniture; it is possible to customize the internal arrangement by adding shelves and/or a clothes rail.
