The imposing doors of this 19th-century cabinet are accented with a trio of lozenge-shaped moldings that enliven the tall, rectilinear silhouette with horizontal lines. Invigorating the cabinet with a sense of rhythm and geometric tension, this tripartite motif is repeated in the cabinet’s triple dagger lock and a trio of interior shelves. Made of northern Elmwood, the cabinet was precisely constructed without nails or glue and painstakingly layered with coats of lacquer to create its glossy, inky black exterior.
