Description

Edward Wormley designed this elegant display cabinet, model #6027, for Dunbar. The olive burl doors of the lower case enclose shelving and a segmented drawer. The ebonized frame above holds six open glass shelves and more shelving behind glass doors. The entire piece sits on a brass base. The flat back of the cabinet allows it to sit flush against a wall, while the concave front gives it further visual interest.

The original key is included.
