Beautiful Utrecht ‘Toogkast’, arched cabinet from the 17th century.

Then the food vanes become visable.

Also called the mirrors in the wood.

Beautiful arches in the doors and also in the sides.

What stands out are the pilasters next to the doors with those deep grooved cannelures.

Because they go around the corner against the sides, they no longer look like flat pilasters but

pillars. Beautiful detail.

Beautiful quarter-sawn panels on the shelves inside.

In the countryside far from the city, old traditions continued to exist longer. 
And this piece of furniture was undoubtedly made in the countryside. 

Characteristic carving adorns the styles with a scale-like pattern. 
Also called 'counted money' because it looks like coins falling over each other. 
Very professionally and regularly done.

Locks and keys are complete and original.

A readable construction.

Form and construction form a whole.

That is inspiration for architects.
