Description:
Tyrolean painted fir wood wardrobe, with two doors, solid structure, and compact proportions. The piece features chamfered sides, with turned feet shaped like flattened onions.
The surface is entirely decorated with a dominant oxidized blue color, interspersed with lighter central and side panels, framed by fillets and linear motifs.
The front doors are divided by painted vertical panels, with stylized ornamental elements arranged symmetrically. Similar decoration is found on the sides, treated as independent narrative surfaces, in formal continuity with the front.
The projecting top frame is enriched by a polychrome decorative band that visually concludes the piece, while the bottom frame echoes the chromatic partition of the rest of the structure.
Work carried out on all our furniture:
- Structural restoration: replacement of small missing parts, closing of any cracks on the back, consolidation of deteriorated areas, check and repair of hardware.
- Thorough anti-worm treatment.
- Cleaning and sanitization of the interior.
- Exterior finish with natural beeswax.
- Interior finish with shellac, a natural alcohol-based varnish.

Upon request, it is possible to arrange:
- the desired degree of restoration;
