About the Item

A late 18th century German rustic Baroque pantry or bread cupboard. Solidly crafted from oak using traditional craftsmanship with hand-forged hinges and a charming original patina. Rectangular oak cabinet standing on skid-feet, constructed from individual boards, with two doors mounted on large hand-forged iron hinges, which can be locked using simple turn bolts. Inside, the cupboard features shelves and the original hook rail. The back panel consists of three continuous oak boards with tongue-and-groove joints, secured to the body with hand-forged iron nails. The top is finished with a slightly projecting moulded cornice with a cover plate. Hallmarks or blacksmith’s marks (‘AF’ with a ‘+’ below, combined within a heart and with an ‘18’ beneath) on the top two hinges confirm that the iron fittings were crafted by a master blacksmith. The quality mark consists of a heart – a symbol of protection or guild membership – within which the master’s initials (‘AF’) are immortalised alongside a cross. The ‘18’ served for technical classification. Dimensions Height: 177 cm or 182 cm / 69.69 in or 71.65 in. Width: 121 cm or 135 cm (headboard) / 47.64 in or 53.15 in (headboard). Depth: 45 cm or 52.5 cm (headboard) or 61 cm (feet) / 17.72 in or 20.67 in (headboard) or 24.02 in (feet). Internal depth: 37 cm / 14.57 in. Shelf depth: 30 cm / 11.81 in. In good, authentic condition with slight age-related signs of wear, including old woodworm tunnels (not active!). The top panel has warped slightly at the front corners over the years. The interior has been resealed and the shelves replaced. The surface has been carefully cleaned without damaging the original patina and preserved with a wax polish. The cupboard cannot be dismantled for transport.
