antique alpine painted cupboard in forest green, with a single door.
on the door, two framed octagonal panels, in red, contain floral decorations. The same are repeated under the door, in a panel identical to the previous two, but rectangular in shape. A red band wraps around the entire piece of furniture, just below the upper frame, and contains the date and initials of the first client.
the elegant alternation of red and green colors is repeated on the sides and notches.
the entire lower part, on the front and sides, is without frames and characterized by a graceful shape with fretwork, called “fratinatura”, which gives lightness to the whole.
