About the Item

This German display cabinet was designed by Bohnacker in the 1950s. A striking example of industrial design, its generously proportioned form is framed in sleek black metal, contrasted by a mirrored back. Metal rivet details and exposed structural elements add a raw, mechanical feel, while the glass-paneled doors and shelves offer ample space for display. Sold and priced individually. Condition: Good vintage condition with characterful wear. Minor marks and scratches on the metal frame and glass shelves, as shown in photos. Doors open smoothly. Maker's mark visible on the metal frame.
