An elegant storage cabinet made of solid ash and burl ash veneer, dating from the early 20th century. Its refined design combines functionality and high-quality cabinetmaking, featuring a front composed of a solid door, a beveled mirrored door, and a set of five drawers offering ample storage space. The front stands out for its particularly elegant asymmetrical design, featuring two doors of different sizes. The narrower left door is adorned with a burl walnut panel framed by subtle moldings, while the wider right door features a large original mirror that spans nearly its entire height. This asymmetrical composition, typical of high-quality furniture from the early 20th century, visually lightens the overall look while offering a perfect balance of storage and functionality. The rich grain of the ash burl contrasts harmoniously with the solid ash stiles and frames. The understated lines, slightly curved legs, and subtle moldings reflect an influence that bridges late art nouveau and the early art deco period. The interior is designed for practical use with a hanging rail and storage compartments, while the large, full-width bottom drawer completes the ensemble. The brass handles and keyholes contribute to its timeless elegance. Very good condition. Delivered unassembled shipping: l 162 p 67 h 136 cm 129 kg See less
