Crafted from solid wood stained a warm brown, it immediately captivates with the richness of its carved ornamentation, typical of the period.

It features an upper drawer adorned with a beautiful metal handle with a ribbed profile, and a remarkably detailed lower door: swirling foliage in high relief and geometric fan-shaped rays radiating downwards, a characteristic motif of the Art Deco style at its height. The upper cornice is highlighted by an elegant, regularly spaced, dentil frieze, while the base adopts a curved, double-arched console form, highly representative of the 1930s style. The original hardware—door handle and silver-plated metal turn lock—is perfectly in keeping with the overall style, attesting to the piece's authenticity.

Sold as is, it shows, like any piece of furniture of this age, some signs of wear: a crack on the left side panel, superficial scratches on the top – all signs of a life well-lived that do not detract from its charm and authenticity.
