Utilizing indigenous old-growth oak, the craftsmen painstakingly created the dentil molding across the entire crown, which overlooks a tailored architectural design fitted with two large doors that open to reveal simply cavernous storage within. The doors are designed with three panels, with a diamond form carved into the topmost, a rosette centered on the middle panels, and a plaque-style treatment of the lowest panels. Hinges are hand-made, as is the key guard for a truly charming touch. A full width hanging rod with shelf above allows one to use it just like a closet.
