Early English Wardrobe, for storing clothes.
In original condition, with the wooden stick at the top to hang the clothing.
This cabinet was once made for this purpose, around 1610 – 1640.
Beautiful panels that have been specially quarter sawn so that the oak gets this beautiful drawing with those light 'spots', they are food vessels that run from the core to the bark.
They are also called mirrors.
Under the narrow hood a line with carvings of (Tudor) roses as the only decoration.
Typical English.
Beautiful panels also in the sides.
See also the back, with all those panels, very characteristic.
A paneled back like this is an early feature.
We also had similar cabinets in the Netherlands that we call ‘paneelkast’ - 'panel cabinets'.
