About the Item

Gorgeous modern all glass lighted display cabinet with brass plated framework, mirrored bottom shelf, four glass shelves, and black painted bottom rim, crown, and stud details. Beautiful condition, keeping in mind that this is vintage and not new so will have signs of use and wear. The bottom rim, top crown, and stud details have been painted black. There are a few places that some of the brass plating is missing, mostly on the hinges. Please see photos and zoom in for details. We attempt to portray any imperfections. Circa, 1970-1980’s. Brass… Glass… and lots of Modern Sass!! Well, it’s brass plated but it sure is beautiful!! This is a fabulous all glass lighted display cabinet by Design Institute of America or DIA featuring brass plated framework and black painted accents on the bottom rim, top crown, and stud details. It has four inner glass shelves, a mirrored bottom shelf, and touch latch doors. It is incredibly attractive and very versatile! It will be stunning filled with your favorite art, nick-nacks, and décor and because it’s all glass, it would double nicely as a room divider! Plus, it has a lighting option so turned on it will add captivating ambience to the room! Lovely!! Although it is modern in style, it is going to blend in beautifully with any décor whether mid-century modern, Hollywood Regency, contemporary, or traditional is your style preference! Design Institute of America a.k.a. DIA was founded in Indiana in 1972. DIA was a design-driven producer of steel furniture for wall units, occasional and dining furniture including tables and chairs, and curios at moderately high price points with an edgy, contemporary flair. Blending metal, chrome, and glass was their staple. Over the years DIA had manufactured the ideas of Rick Berry, Vladimir Kagan, John Mascheroni, and Michael Wold into their pieces. Such ideas as using transparent glass or not and several different metal finishes including electroplating, and acid dipping processes rather than powder coating. And contrary to internet beliefs, Milo Baughman never designed for DIA. Global economic pressures, overseas competitions, and increasing costs caused the company to cease in 2005. This all-glass lighted display cabinet by DIA is just too gorgeous to let pass you by! Don’t wait… make it yours!!
