CASSONE AND CREDENZE.

ITALIAN FURNITURE FROM THE COLLECTION OF THE NATIONAL MUSEUM IN WROCŁAW
November 2009 – June 2010

 


Italian Renaissance furniture is a relative rarity in Polish museum collections which makes this presentation of cassoni and credenzae particularly interesting. The cassone (“large chest”) were used to store valuables and clothing: particularly ornate were those forming part of the bridal suite. The credenza (sideboard) was a low storage cabinet resembling today’s chest and originally used as a buffet for tasting food before serving.
