Crafted from bamboo and mirrored glass, the case is clad in tightly packed, vertically aligned bamboo poles on the sides, while the cornice and base are built from horizontally stacked strips that create crisp, rhythmic shadow lines. The two mirrored doors are the cabinet’s showpiece: slender bamboo rays fan outward in a dramatic sunburst from a central circular medallion, radiating across the glass in graduated lengths and thicknesses. Slim bamboo handles flank the center seam, and the doors are framed by neatly mitered poles that give the piece a precise, architectural finish. Behind the rays, the mirror glass lets light travel through the composition, adding sparkle and depth. The bamboo has matured into a warm, even patina, ranging from pale honey and wheat to deeper amber at the nodes and joints. Sculptural, sun-drenched, and unmistakably tropical in spirit, the cabinet reads as a statement of coastal glamour and meticulous handcraft.

Place this cabinet in a bedroom as a wardrobe, in a dining room or entry as a bar or storage piece, or in a sunroom or den as a display cabinet. It complements Coastal, Boho, Organic Modern, Hollywood Regency, and Mid-Century Modern interiors. To care for it, dust with a soft brush or vacuum brush attachment, wipe with a barely damp cloth, clean the mirrors with a gentle glass cleaner sprayed onto a cloth, and keep it away from direct sunlight, radiators, and dampness. The cabinet measures 43.5 inches (1105 mm) wide, 24.5 inches (622 mm) deep, and 79.25 inches (2013 mm) high. Condition is very good, with a warm, even patina, minor surface wear along the lower edges, and no visible repairs or significant damage. Make this radiant statement piece yours today. See less
