Richly detailed and evocative of medieval revivalist taste, this Antique Gothic Revival Carved Oak Cabinet dates to the mid-19th century and exemplifies the era’s fascination with craftsmanship, symbolism, and drama. The cabinet is carved from solid oak, showcasing deep relief work throughout, including stylized foliate motifs, fluted pilasters, and an imposing Green Man mask — a classic symbol of rebirth and natural vitality — crowning the upper section. The top features a striking leaded glass door, bordered in red with a field of amber and olive-hued diamond panes, casting a warm, jewel-toned glow.
The base cabinet continues the grand aesthetic with a fan-carved frieze above a paneled door featuring bold geometric overlays. Carved figural pilasters frame the lower section, adding a strong architectural presence that anchors the whole piece. With its compact footprint and dramatic styling, this cabinet functions beautifully as an entryway statement or accent in a richly layered interior.
In nice antique condition consistent with age and normal use. There is a noticeable chip to the top right corner of the lower cabinet door, visible in the photos, along with light surface wear and minor rubbing to the carvings. The stained glass remains intact and stable, and the oak has developed a deep, rich patina that enhances the cabinet’s bold character and storied appeal. 77h x 35w x 21d
