Swedish Baroque Bureau Bookcase in Black Paint, Circa 1730–1750

€6,460

Impressive Swedish bureau bookcase crafted during the Baroque period, circa 1730–1750.

Constructed in two sections, the piece features a beautiful black-painted finish with an attractive patina, allowing the warm tones of the wood to emerge subtly along the mouldings and edges.

The upper section is fitted with elegant glazed doors with finely divided panes and glazed side panels, lending the piece a lighter appearance while allowing views into the cabinet from multiple angles.
The interior is finished in a beautiful dusty grey-blue tone, creating a refined contrast to the dark exterior and providing an elegant backdrop for displayed objects.

The boldly profiled pediment is crowned by a distinctive swan-neck crest, richly carved with an urn overflowing with flowers and flanked by laurel branches.

The lower section comprises three generous drawers with serpentine fronts and original gilt-bronze mounts. The flowing drawer fronts reinforce the powerful Baroque character of the piece, while the panelled sides and substantial feet add both presence and architectural strength.

A highly decorative and well-proportioned example of Swedish Baroque furniture, distinguished by its many original details and striking architectural presence.
