Delightful antique French Napoleon III era or earlier hand made 15" table top vitrine, in the shape of a miniature wardrobe or armoire, entirely covered in embroidered floral fabric with shaped & beveled glass door inserts, interior with two glass shelves and in fabulous condition! Aren't these great! Not only are they wonderful little pieces of decorative Bru doll sized furniture but they also make fabulous display vitrines for your prized smalls! This Napoleon III era miniature would have been the delight of some doll owner or collector, but it's possible original purpose was to show the skills of an apprentice to a master cabinetry maker, or 'ebeniste' of the last half of 1800s. The items of miniature furniture like this, almost to exclusion of all, were miniaturized furnishings popular in the time they were made, and were projects to show mastery of different furniture making skills. Now, of course, these old pieces are wonderful and sought after to group on a buffet top, or to house and show off collections of small, and of course the doll collectors beg for them, as well. These can accent display of your own Bru or other French or European dolls. Aren't they fun! Immense visual & decorative appeal! Don't miss this one!
Very good condition. It appears that the glass shelves were professionally cut to shape with finished front but rough rear edges. Original shaped & beveled glass door inserts are in great shape, no missing or damaged fabric that I can see. See pictures for all measurements.
