Lot 470: 20th-century Vernacular Painted Wood Wall Cupboard
A small, one-piece wall-mounted utility cupboard of simple wooden construction. The piece features a single door with a recessed central panel and is finished in an overall distressed white paint. It is designed with shaped bracket-style supports at the top and bottom, each containing pre-drilled holes for wall mounting. The door is fitted with a single round wooden knob painted in a contrasting red colour. Two inventory labels are present: a small white adhesive label on the door marked 3 3 and an orange price tag on the lower edge. The interior fittings are not visible.
Condition report:
The cupboard is in a heavily distressed condition. There is significant chipping, flaking, and loss to the white paint finish across all surfaces, exposing the underlying timber. A prominent horizontal split or gap is present across the central door panel. General surface staining and rust-coloured discolouration are visible, particularly around the red knob and lower bracket.
