The rigorous and geometric architectural structure is framed by satin brass profiles and side panels in glossy black lacquered wood, which amplify the brightness of the burl by contrast. The full-height glass doors, with integrated gold frames, reveal two shelves in cut glass suspended on metal supports, perfect for holding glasses, collectibles or liquors for display.
The base houses a series of four hidden drawers, also completely covered in burl, with an executive accuracy worthy of the best cabinetmaking. Each element is cared for down to the smallest details: from the invisible joints to the perfect alignment of the drawers, up to the precision of the chrome corners.
The cabinet is in excellent condition, completely original. The lacquer is shiny and uniform, the brass profiles are perfectly intact, free from oxidation or opacity. The glass has no scratches or cracks. The briar is alive, deep, with no obvious signs of wear. Only very slight micro-traces of time compatible with its era, which do not compromise the aesthetic impact or functionality.
