Each bay is fitted with paired swing-open glass doors, enclosing adjustable interior shelving. The case is anchored by a projecting cornice with dentil molding, while the uprights are decorated with bold acanthus leaf carvings and turned elements that give the piece a strong architectural presence. The warm, dark-stained wood interior contrasts with the slightly more worn exterior finish, emphasizing depth across the shelving bays.

The adjustable shelves allow for flexible storage, and the wide, uninterrupted span suggests it was designed as a statement installation rather than a modular piece. Original hardware remains present, and the glass panels offer a clear view throughout, reinforcing its role as both storage and display.

Shelves: 50" W x 10" D each See less
