Rare 17th Century South German Renaissance Table Cabinet, Augsburg

17th century
Description

Rare 17th century South German Renaissance Table cabinet, Augsburg

A fine and rare mid-17th century ebony veneered architectural table cabinet of diminutive proportions, circa 1640. Augsuerg.

The moulded ebony veneered cabinet is surmounted with a gable concealing a hidden compartment accessed via a neat sprung loaded catch to one side. The pair of ebony veneered panelled doors open on the original hinges to reveal a beautifully fitted architectural interior consisting of long and short finely lined drawers, each moulded and retaining the original hardware surrounding the intricate central architectural door. A further four secret drawers are located within the carcass.

The cabinet is of the highest quality throughout and is in an incredible state of preservation, retaining all of the original hardware. Museum grade.

The cabinet was likely commissioned to house small treasures and objects of curiosity.

Strictly Vetted Dealers

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

Originating in production centres such as Augsburg and Nuremberg during the 16th and 17th centuries, South German Renaissance table cabinets typically feature architectural pediments, geometric wood paneling, double doors, and internal drawers intended to store curiosities, jewellery, or documents.

Cabinetmakers employed hardwoods such as walnut, oak, fruitwood, or ebony, often as veneers over softwood carcasses. Dovetail joinery, brass or iron key escutcheon plates, and turned bun feet are standard structural features of cabinetmaking from this era.

Authenticity is evaluated by examining hand-sawn timber marks, natural wood shrinkage around panel joints, original lock mechanisms, and expected surface oxidisation on metal hardware.

These compact architectural pieces function as distinctive focal points when placed atop a console table, sideboard, or desk within a library, hallway, or study space.

Maintain a stable indoor climate away from direct heat sources and sunlight to prevent timber movement; clean surfaces gently with a dry microfibre cloth and apply a high-grade beeswax polish sparingly along the grain.
