This mid-century cabinet from Syria is adorned with intricate foliate and floral inlays in born throughout, giving this piece a wonderful sense of texture and visual interest. The case houses three drawers at top (two halved-drawers over a long single drawer), with pair of doors below which open to reveal shelfing for storage within. It is presented upon bracket style feet which blend into the rhythmically arched skirting that gives it a slight lift from the ground. Black and white ribbon inlay outline the perimeter of the skirt/feet, and each cabinet side. The backside of this piece is un-adorned so best use would be against a wall. This beautiful little bone-inlay Syrian cabinet, with a width of just under 2.5 feet, will make a great problem solver for storage needs where space may be limited. See less
