Sanded and lightened, it reveals a wood with an expressive, luminous grain, which integrates equally well into a contemporary interior or a period home. A storage unit in the truest sense of the word: two doors and a well-organized interior designed for lasting use.

materials: solid oak with golden blond tones. Original brass hardware: keyhole escutcheons on both doors (key lock), key. Turned solid oak legs.

features: the wardrobe opens with two large double-paneled doors with framed moldings. The straight cornice with its projecting molding gives the piece a classic, yet uncluttered, architectural line. The interior is fitted with three height-adjustable shelves thanks to a rack and pinion system. The wardrobe locks.

restoration: this cabinet has been gently sanded to remove its glossy brown wax, leaving it in its raw wood state. It has also been treated against wood-boring insects. It has then been thoroughly cleaned.

dimensions: w123.5 x d54 x h216 cm.

interior: w112 x d45 x h195 cm. See less
