Gorgeous Hand Painted Mahogany Vitrine with the original accentuated
bowed glass on the sides and front door. Notice the exquisite and varied brass ormolu
trim with tiny hearts on the top and how it delicately drapes with tassels around the top perimeter.
The glass is framed with more scrolled brass ormolu and elaborated castings of bows,
flowers, and scrolls from top to bottom. There are two original plate glass shelves and a third wooden shelf is covered with velvet. Underneath that shelf is a hidden storage area.
The best part is the wonderfully painted courting scene with a seated lady holding a
basket of flowers with a gentleman suitor by her side. The painted sides show lovely
woodland scenes. The original brass key with dolphins came with this special cabinet.
