About the Item

This exceptional Art Deco vitrine, signed by renowned French ébéniste Christian Krass (Lyon), exemplifies the elegance and craftsmanship of French furniture design around 1930. A sophisticated interplay of materials characterizes this collector’s piece: deep-toned stained wood veneer contrasts with parchment-clad drawers made from fine goat leather, whose natural texture adds visual warmth and rarity. The slightly recessed, high-gloss black lacquered base gives the piece architectural lightness, while the glass showcase is cleverly designed to extend above the wooden frame. Thanks to its side glazing and mirrored interior, it floods the objects inside with ambient light — making it ideal for displaying glassware, fine art or as a glamorous bar cabinet. Massive nickel-plated handles and the subtly convex drawer fronts reflect the level of bespoke craftsmanship that defines the Art Deco era. With its versatile proportions and noble materials, this cabinet is as functional as it is refined — a testament to authentic French modernism in pristine, fully restored condition. Dimensions: Width: 110 cm (43.3 in) Height: 170 cm (66.9 in) Depth: 45 cm (17.7 in) This piece blends function with elegance — and its radiant surfaces and harmonious proportions evoke the instant desire to make it part of your home.
