Dutch West Indies Vitrine Cabinet , mid-to-late 18th c., broken arch pediment, central flame finial, glazed cupboard doors, enclosing astragal molded shelves, canted glazed sides, scalloped base , h. 30 1/4 in., w. 30 1/4 in., d. 11 in. Note: The flame finial, the arched pediment and the canted sides on this cabinet are all typical of Dutch vitrine forms of the late 18th century. The use of Spanish cedar as the primary wood indicates that this cabinetmaker was using wood native the Dutch West Indies. Most desirable as an aromatic and moist wood for cigar humidors, Spanish cedar is rare in mid-sized case furniture, as seen here. Ref.: Michael Connors. Caribbean Elegance.
