19th Century English Carved and Painted Green Pantry Cabinet / Jelly Cupboard
Diminutive painted pine jelly cupboard (circa late 1800s) composed of a plank-top with a hinged door concealing two fixed-shelves. Exterior retains its original green paint. Three sides boast an intricately carved floral motif throughout; the back is flat black. Door opens and closes by way of a small, black pull, but there was no latch designed to keep it securely closed. (It remains shut on its own.) Authentic wear / weathering along with rich patina from use (namely paint loss and wood splits, as shown). All original condition.
Measures: H 36″ x D 15.25″ x L 20″ (Depth when door is open: 31″).
Antique Primitive Jelly Cupboard with Hinged Door and Interior Shelf
$700.00Diminutive jelly cupboard with hinged door opening to reveal a fixed shelf, which separates the interior into two sections of storage (ca. mid-late 19th Century, New England, USA).
Metal hardware is a later addition (ca. 1940s/50s), as is the layer of light blue/green paint (top layer is worn in an attractive crackle pattern revealing the original blue color beneath – back retains original blue paint).
The yellow vinyl surface had been previously added via metal tacks in order to conceal largely unfinished wood. It can be removed, but the surface has large swaths of missing paint.
The overall look is naturally and desirably distressed, with paint loss and wear commensurate with age.

Primitive Hexagonal Jelly Cupboard
This small and uniquely sized jelly cupboard adds extra pantry space to even the smallest of kitchens. The hinged door opens to reveal a single, fixed shelf which divides this tall, yet narrow cupboard into two sections of storage. This piece is distressed; there is wear, partially by design, some from age and use. There is some wood loss in places, as well as moderate paint loss. The piece shows nice age and is a nice example of mid-20th Century American shabby chic style.
