18C Swedish Hand Painted Pine Cabinet or Cupboard
About the Item
PRESENTING A GORGEOUS 18C Swedish Hand Painted Pine Cabinet or Cupboard.
This piece would have been made in Sweden/Scandinavia circa 1780/90.
Made entirely of pitch pine, which has then been hand-painted with a sage green base and then hand-painted floral bouquets on the pelmet/crown, the top section door, the center drawer and the base section door.
Constructed using hand made iron nails and rivets and it still retains it’s original iron door straps, locks, hinges and keys.
The piece is in superb condition considering it’s age and purpose. Also the wood used, namely pine, can often badly deteriorate if not properly maintained or subjected to extreme conditions such as excess moisture and heat.
The base sage green paint is still visible and the natural patination gives it a glorious color.
The hand-painted floral bouquets are still quite vibrant (if a little, faded through age) and unlike some similar pieces have NOT been re-painted.
The iron hardware (rivets, keyhole covers, hinges, locks, keys and door straps are ALL original to the piece and are ‘unmistakably’ 18th Century in date. The oxidization to the iron is, likewise, further evidence of genuine age.
The crown/pelmet is removeable.
The top section door opens to reveal 2 shelving areas for storage. The central drawer has an iron door pull handle and pulls outwards. Underneath the drawer is a frontal shelf/mantel.
The base section door opens to reveal 2 shelving areas for storage.
A pair of inset panels with molded edges flanks either side of the front.
The piece sits on a molded base board platform.
THIS WOULD HAVE BEEN BROUGHT OVER TO THE US, BY A SWEDISH IMMIGRANT, PROBABLY IN THE LATE 18th or VERY EARLY 19th CENTURY AND HAS BEEN CLEARLY ‘LOVED’ BY THEIR DESCENDANT’S EVER SINCE!

- 18C English Chippendale Shepherds Crook ArmchairLocated in Dallas, TXPresenting an absolutely stunning and original 18C english chippendale shepherds crook armchair. Made in England circa 1780-1800 of walnut, this ‘period’ chair is simply Gorgeous in it’s Originality! It is still covered in it’s original needlepoint/tapestry upholstery with neo-classical elements of a Greek or Roman Goddess sitting holding a staff on the back splat and floral motiff’s elsewhere. What makes this piece Truly Original is the fact that the needlepoint appears to have been signed by the original owner/maker of the tapestry and it appears to be the family name of “Tancret”. The arm rests have the most glorious ‘shepherd’s crook’ twists and turns. The central base section has what appears to be heavily carved Prince of Wales Plumes, signifying the Regency Era. The knees of the 2 front legs have the most amazingly carved acanthus relief decoration and the 2 front legs end in the best example of ball and claw feet you are ever likely to see. The back legs also have some interesting detail as the feet are platformed or hooved. Overall, the piece is in great condition for it’s age and use. There are no major tears or holes in the original tapestry. There is some discoloration but that is to be expected with a piece this old. There is a very small piece of the central front medallion (bottom left as you look) missing, but it is not noticeable and does not detract from the piece. One small stain on the back. Gorgeous natural patina to the wood. Provenance: From a Wealthy Estate in Kentucky/Tennessee Condition: Very good. See full description. Dimensions: 44? tall, 28? wide and 27? deep Seat height of 18.5? with seat depth of 17.5? and interior seat width of 22.5? Armrests are 26.25? Tall The vast movement of people that followed the Norman Conquest of England in 1066 brought the Tancret family name to the British Isles. Tancret comes from the ancient Norman given name Tancred. The Tanksley variant is indeed rare. However, this name traces its origin to Roger Tankerlayman who was listed in Yorkshire in 1387. Because of this political and religious unrest within English society, many people decided to immigrate to the colonies. Families left for Ireland, North America, and Australia in enormous numbers, traveling at high cost in extremely inhospitable conditions. The New World in particular was a desirable destination, but the long voyage caused many to arrive sick and starving. Those who made it, though, were welcomed by opportunities far greater than they had known at home in England. Many of these families went on to make important contributions to the emerging nations of Canada and the United States. Analysis of immigration records indicates that some of the first North American immigrants...Category
