The surface is richly time-worn—abraded, peeled, and weathered—revealing a textured tapestry of tones that read almost like oxidized copper meeting sunbaked earth. The result is a naturally occurring patina with remarkable depth and quiet drama.

The piece features two broad front doors framed in thick, rustic joinery, each fitted with aged metal handles and original latches. The proportions are low and grounded, giving it a sculptural presence, while the interior offers a wide storage cavity with a central shelf. Side panels reveal even more character: streaks of faded cream, deep turquoise, and exposed grain that echo the cabinet’s long life.
