Rococo-style wall cabinet from Isokyrö parsonage

This corner cabinet belonged to the Durchman family, who lived in the Isokyrö parsonage. The cabinet dates from 1702. The cabinet was influenced by the Rococo style. Its sides are heavily curved. The cabinet door is pear-shaped. The door has been skilfully decorated with wood carvings and has motifs such as the sun, hearts and various rocaille-type patterns. The decorative trim above the cabinet door is a curved shape, also called a ram’s horn moulding. The cabinet model is typical of cabinets carved in Kuortane.
