This structural piece rests on two openwork geometric brass side supports. It incorporates a lower cabinet with two doors in high-gloss black lacquer with brass inlays and a matching modular display cabinet, equipped with a shelf and doors in bluish-tinted glass. This piece exemplifies high-end French design from the Hollywood Regency period.

Very good overall condition. The cabinet has a small chip in the lacquer on the upper edge of the lower cabinet doors. Although cleaned, the brass retains a natural patina consistent with its age and shows minor signs of wear, such as scratches and localized discoloration.
