Featuring a unique "stepped" skyscraper-style base and intricate relief carvings on the pediment, this piece has been beautifully refreshed in a soft, versatile sand-toned patina.
The central door features classic chicken wire (grillage), offering a warm glimpse of the natural wood interior—perfect for displaying fine linens, ironstone, or a curated library.

This is an authentic vintage piece with a storied past. It shows charming "character marks," including visible traces of old woodworm (vrillette). Please note the piece has been professionally treated and the holes have been meticulously filled/sealed; while the "scars" remain visible under the paint, they are stable and add to the authentic soul of the cabinet.
