A spacious living room or dining room benefits from furniture that combines generous storage with strong visual character. This substantial oak cabinet provides an attractive place to display treasured items while keeping everyday belongings neatly organised. The cabinet features two central glazed doors with decorative leaded panes, flanked by deeply carved panelled doors depicting classical-style portraits surrounded by scrolling foliage. A generous arrangement of internal shelves offers ample space for books, glassware, tableware or decorative pieces, while three carved drawers below provide useful concealed storage. Turned feet, brass-coloured fittings and extensive hand-carved detailing complete its traditional appearance. The previous darker finish has been carefully stripped away, and several coats of hard-wearing lacquer have been applied to protect the surface and highlight the warm colour and natural oak grain. Some age-related wear remains, including damage along an inner door edge, as shown in the photographs. The cabinet is made from solid oak, apart from the back, which is made from plywood. Its impressive scale, practical storage and detailed craftsmanship make it a natural focal point for a larger room. This is a distinctive piece that offers both everyday usefulness and enduring period appeal.[dimensions][w]235[/w][h]161[/h][d]55[/d][/dimensions] Show more
