Patinated Bronze Ornamentation:
This display cabinet features stunning patinated bronze ornamentation, crafted with great precision, reflecting the craftsmanship of the time:

Plant motifs:
The plaque adorning the glass door features a delicately chased iris design, symbolizing beauty and purity.
The irises are rendered in a highly naturalistic manner, with petals and stems carefully worked to create a rich and harmonious visual effect.

Animal motifs:
The lock ornament, a frog, surprises with its subtlety.
This animal piece, inspired by the lake fauna, highlights the poetic and symbolic nature of Art Nouveau, where each detail tells a story and invites dreams.

These patinated bronzes, with their subtly aged hues, add a timeless dimension to the whole and give the display cabinet a unique aesthetic full of poetry and lightness.

Carved Solid Wood:

The structure of the display cabinet is made from precious exotic hardwood, carefully chosen for its strength and beauty. The wood is delicately carved, with suggestive curves reminiscent of plants and water movement, perfectly characteristic of the Art Nouveau style.
These carvings create visual fluidity that echoes the organic lines of nature and water.
