Антикварная витрина

A mid-twentieth century antique showcase with a marble top in an eclectic style that combines features of classical styles with a modern form. This piece combines the laconic appearance of the rectangular façade decorated with bronze plates with floral motifs, and the smooth shapes of the cabriole legs and the figured door frame, which are combined with the delicate texture of the walnut used for the herringbone veneer. Glass inserts on three sides emphasise the exhibition character of the furniture, the interior of which is made of velvet. Such showcases were most often found in living rooms and were used to present collectibles: porcelain service, figurines or silverware.
