Display case - Wood, Glass - Display cabinet

This is an antique, hexagonal wall display cabinet, probably dating from the late 18th or early 19th century. The cabinet is made of dark-stained wood, likely oak, with a rich aged patina and visible signs of use that come with its age. It is designed to be mounted on the wall. Exterior: The cabinet features a striking hexagonal shape, with two slanted side panels forming the front beside the central door. The top is adorned with a decorative, carved wooden pediment or crown moulding, giving the cabinet a refined, classical appearance. The front door is divided into nine smaller glass panels (3x3), each framed by wooden bars. The door is equipped with an original, detailed brass or bronze-coloured key plate (shield) around the keyhole. No key is included. The right side of the door has small hinges. The two slanted side panels are also glazed, allowing a good view of the contents from different angles. Interior: The inside of the cabinet is fully painted in a vivid red color, in keeping with its age. Behind the glass of the door and the side panels are two glass shelves, creating a total of three display compartments. The red interior contrasts beautifully with the dark wood and provides a perfect backdrop for exhibiting small collectibles. Back: The back of the cabinet is made of untreated, weathered wood, underscoring its authenticity. At the upper corners on the back are two metal, screwed-on mounting brackets by which the cabinet can be attached to the wall. Dimensions (approximate): Height (including the pediment): ~65 cm Width (maximum): ~50 cm Depth: ~15 cm
