This impressive and rare Mid-Century Modernist Cabinet by James Mont in Black Lacquered Walnut W/Gilt Carved Handles originates from the United States, Circa 1950. A truly outstanding case piece, this cabinet exemplifies the stunning references and balanced use of detailing with geometric presence utilized in Mid-Century Modernist design, and particularly that of esteemed designer and furniture maker James Mont, known for his accomplished use of finishes and sophisticated use of sculptural motifs and detailing. The bottom section of the cabinet rests on a plinth base and features four doors with sculptural gilt wood handles depicting Herons surrounded by plant life. The center two doors swivel outwards to reveal internal shelving designed for barware. The upper section of the cabinet features exposed shelving to either side, with columns providing stunning detailing in the same gilt wood finish of the handles, with a matching tiered overhang at the top of the piece. The center has glass cabinet doors with X form detailing, allowing one to beautifully store and style accessories or pieces of one's choosing, with a smaller drawer in the center featuring a more abstract round geometric carved gilt wood handle. With remarkable quality finishes and stunning attention to detail throughout the piece, this cabinet is sure to make a statement and style well in a wide array of spaces and settings, from Mid-Century Modernist to Contemporary and Minimal Interiors.
