19th Century French Wooden Display Cabinet

About the Item

Rational and distinguished, this antique wooden display cabinet is a covetable find. Built in France in the 1800s, the airy, stripped-back composition of the upper shelves evokes the furled masts of ships, while the central drawers of the lower cabinet jut out like a prow. The sense of lightness and space created by the floating shelves naturally draws the eye to beautiful and intriguing objects placed upon them. The inky black finish of the wood creates a somber and stylish impression; a gentle patina acquired over the years adds a note of nostalgic warmth. Beautifully contoured iron brackets bear the monogram ’S.H’—a trace of the original owner who would have commissioned this cabinet to be built.
