Extremely fine Italian Baroque ebonized wood, faux ivory, and hardstone cabinet, Florence, 20th century. Decorated overall with Berainesque (light arabesques and playful grotesques) motifs including rinceaux, putti and mythical birds, and inlaid with various semi-precious stones including lapus lazuli, porphyry, various agates and marbles, the superstructure with domed pediment, the sides decorated with geometric stringing.
