materials: oak (solid and veneer).

features: this small art deco display cabinet opens with a lockable door. The low-arched pediment is adorned with a geometric sculpted design, a characteristic motif of the french art deco period. The single door is divided into fifteen glass panes arranged in a regular grid, framed by oak uprights with gently rounded corners. The base is highlighted by a high-relief sculpted medallion depicting a stylized spiral within an octagonal frame with geometric lines. The cabinet rests on four discreet, curved feet that visually lighten its overall appearance. Inside, the display cabinet features three shelves, two of which are height-adjustable thanks to a rack and pinion system.

restoration: the art deco display cabinet was gently sanded to remove its orange varnish while preserving its patina. It was left in its raw wood finish.
