Stunning Arts and Crafts Wall Key Cabinet of Embossed Copper with Beveled Mirror
Located in Lisse, NL
Great quality and condition wall key or brush cabinet from 1930. This Arts & Crafts style wall cabinet can be used for all kinds of purposes and the stunning, beveled mirror is a real bonus. The handcrafted artwork in the form of carefully hand-hammered style elements on the copper outside is very aesthetically pleasing and the patina too makes this cabinet an absolute joy to own and look at.

If you are a collector of rare, timeless, good quality, artistic and practical Arts & Crafts pieces then this wall cabinet with mirror...
