Historical notes and mobile curiosities

Visiting our customers who own a prestigious hotel in the Val di Sole in Trentino Alto Adige, we were captivated by the original model of this valuable pantry-cupboard built in the mid-seventeenth century. Our client asked us to bring the model to our workshop to touch up some damaged parts of the lacquer. After having carried out a healthy and accurate restoration, given the uniqueness of the piece and the rare beauty of the splendid decorations, courtesy of our client, we took the shapes and sizes of the wardrobe and took accurate photographs of all the decorations. The result is a pantry cabinet of rare beauty, made and hand painted in our artisan workshop.
