A spectacular 19th-century mahogany vitrine cabinet that could be the star attraction in any room. The slightly curved cabinet is one of a pair in our inventory and come from a private Paris apartment. They are both in excellent condition. Each features original glass upper doors fitted with original brass hinges and handles. The top portion opens to adjustable shelves and the lower portion, behind glass doors covered with a neutral linen, contains more shelving for storage. The fabric can be easily removed or replaced. This is truly a unique and special piece that is not only stunning, but quite useful and practical.
