Beautiful Utrecht ‘Toogkast’, arched cabinet from the 17th century.
Stunning quarter-sawn oak panels with that characteristic pattern that occurs when the wood is sawn in this way. Right to the middle.
Then the food vanes become visable.
Also called the mirrors in the wood.
Beautiful arches in the doors and also in the sides.
What stands out are the pilasters next to the doors with those deep grooved cannelures.
Because they go around the corner against the sides, they no longer look like flat pilasters but
pillars. Beautiful detail.
The carving is very professionally and artistic done.
In the hood we see 'grunts' , drop-shaped ornaments that are characteristic of the Renaissance.
Original lock and working key.
Beautiful quarter-sawn panels on the shelves inside.
